Let's take a look

Typically, a pending ratio indicates the supply and demand of the market. Specifically, a high ratio means that listings are in demand and quickly going to contract. Alternatively, a low ratio means there are not enough qualified buyers for the existing supply.

at the real estate market. Currently there are 232 sales pending in the market overall, leaving 845 listings still for sale. The resulting pending ratio is 21.5% (232 divided by 1,077). So you might be asking yourself, that's great... but what exactly does it mean? I'm glad you asked!

''The current inventory can best be described as very active.''

Contracts Pending

Taking a closer look, we notice that the $75K - $100K price range has a relatively large number of contracts pending sale. We also notice that the $75K - $100K price range has a relatively large inventory of properties for sale at 147 listings. The average list price (or asking price) for all properties in this market is $148,893.

Alternatively, a total of 589 listings have failed to sell in that same period of time. Listings may fail to sell for many reasons such as being priced too high, having been inadequately marketed, the property was in poor condition, or perhaps the owner had second thoughts about selling at this particular time. The $75K - $100K price range has the highest number of off-market listings at 122 properties.

The recent history of sales can be seen in the two charts below. The average sold price for the last 30 days was $151,147 with an average DOM of 86 days. Since the recent DOM is less than the average DOM for the last 6 months, it is a positive indicator for demand. It is always important to realize that real estate markets can fluctuate due to many factors, including shifting interest rates, the economy, or seasonal changes.

Ratios are simple ways to express the difference between two values such as list price and sold price. In our case, we typically use the list-to-sale ratio to determine the percentage of the final list price that the buyer ultimately paid. It is a very common method to help buyers decide how much to offer on a property.

Analysis of the absorption rate indicates an inventory of 9.8 months based on the last 6 months of sales. This estimate is often used to determine how long it would take to sell off the current inventory of listings if all conditions remained the same. It is significant to mention that this estimate does not take into consideration any additional properties that will come on the market in the future.

''The average list-to-sales ratio for this area is 98.0%.''

Looking at the chart to the right, you might be wondering why average days on market (DOM) is important. This is a useful measurement because it can help us to determine whether we are in a buyer's market (indicated by high DOM), or a seller's market (indicated by low DOM). Active listings, or properties for sale, have been on the market for an average of 113 days.

(P) represents properties that buyers have chosen (A+P) represents the entire pool from which they have chosen 3. OFF-MARKET a. Number Off-Market: The number of listing agreements that have failed to close in the last 6 months. Some owners may choose to reoffer their property for sale. 4. PROPERTIES SOLD a.
