AUGUST 2020

Existing home sales come back strong in June WASHINGTON– Existing-home sales rebounded at a record pace in June, showing strong signs of a market turnaround after three straight months of sales declines caused by the ongoing pandemic, according to the National Association of Realtors. Each of the four major regions achieved month-over-month growth, with the West experiencing the greatest sales recovery.

Total existing-home sales, completed transactions that include singlefamily homes, townhomes, condominiums and co-ops, jumped

20.7 percent from May to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.72 million in June. Sales overall, however, dipped year-over-year, down 11.3 percent from a year ago (5.32 million in June 2019).

“The sales recovery is strong, as buyers were eager to purchase homes and properties that they had been eyeing during the shutdown,” said Lawrence Yun, NAR’s chief economist.

“This revitalization looks to be sustainable for many months ahead as long as mortgage rates remain low and job gains continue.”

The median existing-home price for all housing types in June was $295,300, up 3.5 percent from June 2019 ($285,400), as prices rose in every region. June’s national price increase marks 100 straight months of year-over-year gains.

Total housing inventory at the end of June totaled 1.57 million units, up 1.3 percent from May, but still down 18.2 percent from one year ago (1.92 million). Unsold inventory sits at a 4.0-month supply at the current sales pace, down from both 4.8 months in May and from the 4.3-month figure

recorded in June 2019.

Yun said significantly low inventory was a problem even before the pandemic and says such circumstances can lead to inflated costs.

“Home prices rose during the lockdown and could rise even further due to heavy buyer competition and a significant shortage of supply.”

Yun’s concerns are underscored in NAR’s recently released 2020 Member Profile, in which Realtors point to low inventory as being one of the top hindrances for potential buyers.

Properties typically remained on

AUGUST 2020

REAL ESTATE RESOURCE: COASTAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS /OCEAN CITY TODAY

the market for 24 days in June, seasonally down from 26 days in May, and down from 27 days in June 2019.

Sixty-two percent of homes sold in June 2020 were on the market for less than a month.

First-time buyers were responsible for 35 percent of sales in June, up from 34 percent in May 2020 and about equal to 35 percent in June 2019.

NAR’s 2019 Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers – released in late 2019 – revealed that the annual share of firsttime buyers was 33 percent.

Individual investors or secondhome buyers, who account for many cash sales, purchased 9 percent of homes in June, down from 14 percent in May 2020 and 10 percent in June

2019. All-cash sales accounted for 16 percent of transactions in June, down from 17 percent in May 2020 and about equal to 16 percent in June 2019.

Distressed sales — foreclosures and short sales – represented 3 percent of sales in June, about even with May but up from 2 percent in June 2019.

According to Freddie Mac, the average commitment rate for a 30-year, conventional, fixed-rate mortgage decreased to 3.16 percent in June, down from 3.23 percent in May. The average commitment rate across all of 2019 was 3.94 percent.

Single-family home sales sat at a seasonally-adjusted annual rate of 4.28 million in June, up 19.9 percent from 3.57 million in May, and down

9.9 percent from one year ago. The median existing single-family home price was $298,600 in June, up 3.5 percent from June 2019.

Existing condominium and co-op sales were recorded at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 440,000 units in June, up 29.4 percent from May and down 22.8 percent from a year ago.

The median existing condo price was $262,700 in June, an increase of 1.4 percent from a year ago.

“Homebuyers considering a move to the suburbs is a growing possibility after a decade of urban downtown revival,” Yun said. “Greater work-fromhome options and flexibility will likely remain beyond the virus and any forthcoming vaccine.”

PAGE 7

In a complete reversal of the month prior, sales for June increased in every region. Median home prices grew in each of the four major regions from one year ago.

June 2020 existing-home sales in the Northeast rose 4.3 percent, recording an annual rate of 490,000, a 27.9 percent decrease from a year ago. The median price in the Northeast was $332,900, up 3.6 percent from June 2019.

Existing-home sales in the South jumped 26.0 percent to an annual rate of 2.18 million in June, down 4.0 percent from the same time one year ago.

The median price in the South was $258,500, a 4.4 percent increase from a year ago.

Thinking of selling? Here’s how to do it successfully Selling your home can be a difficult or even emotional decision, and often can be quite challenging. But with the right preparation, pricing and the help of professionals, you can turn your home into marketable real estate.

Seller Checklist 1. Use the resources of a real estate professional. Learn more about the advantages of working with a Realtor at www.nar.realtor.

2. Get your home ready to sell.

Spend time on preparing your home before it is listed. You will want it to look as attractive as possible.

3. Educate yourself about sales prices of homes in your neighborhood. A realistic understanding of how to price your home is a critical element in a successful sale.

4. Remember that you may have to offer closing cost assistance to make the sale of the home possible.

5. Educate yourself about different types of loans and how you can help a ready and able buyer purchase your home.

Preparing Your Home To Sell 1. Start with the outside – curb appeal gets buyers into your home.

Scrape, prep, paint or power wash house, deck and patio. Clean out flower beds and rake up any refuse or

leaves, and add new mulch and new fresh flowers. Replace outside lights.

Clean and repair gutters and downspouts. Repair or replace rusted or pitted railings. Sweep (or shovel!) walkways. Clean or paint the front door.

2. From the outside, step into the front foyer and look around. Is the entryway attractive, or is it cluttered?

3. Wash all windows inside and out. Open draperies and curtains during the day, or turn on lights at night to promote the effect of bright cheery interiors.

4. Remove personal items, family pictures, and all excess decorations, including extra furniture. Start packing—especially personal collections.

Make the space look as large and inviting as possible.

5. Set a neutral tone to the house— with paint and colors. You want your home to appeal to as wide a range of buyers as possible.

6. Be sure all carpet and floors are clean. Replace, clean, or repair as necessary.

7. Dust your furniture and hot water heater and all other appliances.

A shiny appliance shows an attention to maintenance and care.

8. Replace the filters in your heatContinued on page 14

Continued from page 12 ing and cooling systems.

9. Fix everything that is broken, including loose doorknobs, wobbly hinges, stuck windows, cracked glass or mirrors.

10. Paint and polish. A small investment in paint, stain or polyurethane will restore faded walls and worn woodwork and make your home look and smell fresh 11. Call the plumber if necessary.

Make sure there are no leaking faucets, clogged or slow drains, or low water pressure.

12. Re-caulk all tubs. Nothing turns a buyer off faster than mold in the bathtub caulk!

13. Keep stairways and corridors clean and free of clutter so that they are attractive and safe.

14. Consider the big picture—be sure the attic is presentable, the garage is neat and preferably empty, the basement is tidy, closets are clean, neat and well organized.

15. Look at the house through the eyes of a buyer. Highlight strengths, focus on features and bring out the best in your house.

Pricing Your Home To Sell Realistic pricing is a major factor in the marketability of your home and key to a quick sale. The most common mistake sellers make is setting the price too high. An overpriced house not only won’t sell, it may not

even attract offers, so you won’t have the opportunity even to make a counter offer.

There are several steps you can take to understand the market value of your home.

1. Research homes that have sold in your neighborhood in the last six months. Include sales that are within one half mile of your home, and look for homes of similar size.

2. From that list, compare homes that are of a similar age and square footage.

3. Pay attention to any physical barriers that may divide your neighborhood. Major streets or transit lines may affect house prices on either side.

4. Other factors that may affect the price of your home include its location. Is your neighborhood a desirable area? Is your home close to shopping, schools and recreation facilities?

5. Pay attention to school district lines. Two similar houses in different school districts may get very different prices.

6. If you intend to list your home with a real estate professional, interview at least three who specialize in your neighborhood.

Ask each one to give you a comparative market analysis and their opinion about the appropriate price range.
