I list
these out to show that, while our Austin real estate market has experienced a
definite slowdown, the sky isn’t falling as some in the media have professed.
Below are our numbers through September (which ends the 3rd quarter) and you
can see that prices have held up well in spite of our slowing activity numbers.
Below is
a chart showing the 2 most important categories with any real estate market:
Average/Median sale prices and months of inventory. Sale
prices have not gone negative, but we have been seeing home sellers reducing their listing
or asking price the past month or so. Our months of
inventory, while going up dramatically since January, has flattened the past 3 months
at 3.1-3.2 months. Less than 6 months of inventory indicate a seller’s
market while more than that reflects a buyer’s market.
