Next, let’s review the Oakland Twp Real Estate Market for January 2019. Feel free to compare this to last month’s blog, “Oakland Twp Real Estate Market for December.”
We’ll start with the Homes for Sale in January in Oakland Twp. In 2017, there were 147 homes for sale and that number dropped by -9.5 percent in 2018, to having 133 homes for sale. In 2019, we saw a further drop of -24.1 percent with only 101 homes on the market.
Next, we’ll look at the year over year averages of days on market. We’ll start with the average days on market for January in 2017, that number was 67 days and then it decreased to 62 average days on the market in 2018. In 2019, the average days decreased once again to 37 days in 2019, which was a -40.3 percent decrease from the previous year!
The next graph I like to explain as it isn’t always understandable to the average person looking at these statistics. We are going to look at the Supply of Homes for Sale. The Supply of Homes for Sale is the measure of how many months it would take for the current inventory of homes on the market to sell, given the current pace of home sales. For example, if there are 50 homes on the market and 10 homes selling each month, there is a 5 month supply of homes for sale. (definition supplied by Findwell.com)
If you look at the current graph below you will see that back in 2017, the Months Supply of Homes for Sale in Oakland Twp was 4.0 months. In 2018, it increased to 4.2 months which was a +5.0 percent increase. In 2019, the Months Supply of Homes for Sale held even with the previous year at 4.2 months.
