Real Estate Inventory Rising

With the improving weather, the number of people listing their homes for sale is on the rise. There are about sixty more homes for sale in Cache County than a month ago.
While the number of listings is up, the 647 residential homes for sale is less than the 681 that were listed during May of last year.

April was a fairly quiet month for residential real estate sales. Seventy three homes sold which is up slightly from April of 2012 when 71 properties sold.

Cache County real estate prices apear to be on the rise. Month over month prices are up for both list and sales prices. During April, the median sales price was $162,500, and the average sold price was $173,364.

 While mortgage interest rates saw a slight rise, they seem to be back down again. Qualified buyers can obtain thirty year fixed rate mortgages for just 3.375%. It's a great time to buy, and the selection of real estate for sale is on the rise.
