IN CLOSING:
I believe the only thing that is perfectly clear after looking at the statistics for February is that the
real estate market for Denton County is beginning to change.
With median prices for under contract properties down over $5,000, and sold properties median
price only increasing $2,000 these are numbers I don’t believe anyone expected to see while the tax
credit was still in effect, even for the winter month of February.
I have talked a lot, and I mean a lot about the first time home buyer tax credit and it’s expiration on
my site, with my clients, and those who call me with questions. I am sticking with my earlier opinion
or prediction that I expect to see prices fall by up to 3% by mid to late summer; which will be most of
the appreciation in values we have seen in the last year and a half.
SELLERS
It is always important for sellers to price
their properties appropriately. Do not
chase the market, or wait for the
market to catch up to you when it
comes to setting a price if you are
serious about selling.
BUYERS
It is equally important for buyers to not
believe they can come in and low-ball a
house with a offer 10% less than the market
suggest, not the seller or their agent.
Work with an agent that tells you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear.
