The residential real estate market continuted to show signs of stabilizing in several categories in January. The charts below tell the story: 34.2% fewer homes on the market, 22.4% fewer sales, 9.4% fewer pending sales (under contract but not yet closed). However, sold homes were up 14.5% from the same month last year. So activity is picking up even the prices are not really beginning their recovery yet.

The Average Cumulative Days on Market for a property fell 34% from a January of last year, while the percentage of the original asking price that was realized by sellers rose 3.3% from a year ago.

 

The next two graphs seem to indicate that prices are beginning to stablize. Both the median and average price were virtually flat from December to January.
