I’ll report what does get recorded, but I think this week is being spent by sellers and buyers finishing their vacations and getting kids ready to return to school. The few open houses today were just retreads, and I suspect Thursday’s will be just as limited. Stay tuned, but I’d guess we won’t see much activity until after Labor Day.
So the summer selling season as come and went. On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being 2007 and 1 hopefully a level none of us every has to go through, what would you rate the summer selling season?
Good question, IB’r, and one I’ll have to pull stats on before I answer. Last time I looked, contracts were about the same as 2008, which was dismal (but not as bad as 2009), but prices were down. Let me do some study and I’ll post a more solid answer, soon. Maybe a 6?
