May Newsletter 2025

by John Cooper

Single-family detached home sales are holding steady with 30 homes (+/- 5 homes) selling every week. The number of homes being introduced to the market has much higher variability. 72 homes were listed last week, up from 52 the previous week.  May is typically the busiest month of the year and I expect this May to perform similarly.
