Taking the Temperature of the North Texas Housing Market

Ebby Halliday Realtors give overview of competitive housing market in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

Richardson, TX (PRWEB) May 31, 2013

There has been much talk in recent months about the robust housing market in North Texas. Competition among buyers for well-priced listings has become heated, with multiple offers on listed properties common in many area neighborhoods, according to Mary Frances Burleson, President and CEO of Ebby Halliday Realtors.

“With rising sales prices, fewer homes for sale and historically low interest rates, the spring of 2013 is shaping up to be the best time in a long time to sell a home in the Dallas-Fort Worth area,” Burleson says. “The latest numbers from North Texas Real Estate Information Systems make quite a compelling case for homeowners who are trying to decide whether now is a good time to sell a home in Dallas-Fort Worth.”

The latest numbers from the NTREIS show that there are fewer homes for sale on the market and the ones that are on the market aren’t staying there for as long as they used to. The numbers show a comparison of the market in March 2012 to March 2013.

In March 2013, the days on market were down 25.4 percent to 76 days on average. The month’s supply of inventory was down 33.6 percent to four months. The number of homes for sale was down 23.4 percent.

Closed sales were up 9.7 percent, while the percent of original list price received was up 1.7 percent to 94.4 percent of asking price.
