Jim is a long-time local realtor who comments daily here on his blog, bubbleinfo.com which began in September, 2005. Stick around!
The thing that jumps out for me is DoM for the $4m+ segment. Used to be that those super-premium properties could reasonable expect to remain on market 6-8 months looking for the right match. 70 days?
All it means is 70 days….so far. They are still active.
It also shows how many new listings keep hitting the market – keeping the averages lower.
There have been 135 NSDCC sales closed this year over $4M, and their average DOM is 56 days. The 6-12 month belief is a myth now.
Did you see/feel the six SoCal earthquakes over 2.5 in the last week? The Big One is coming!
I’ve been in Park City, UT over the past week so I missed the excitement. 😉
A couple nice hikes in the snow. 6k ft altitude I can shrug off but 8.5k ft is noticeable.
All those little jiggles are down on your end of the San Andreas Fault. Little jiggles are a good thing. For real anticipation check out Kilauea:
