by Dan Krell © 2012

Lack of new listings in Bethesda MD 20814 may be cause for concern

by Dan Krell © 2012
DanKrell.com

As some around the country are putting hope in pending sales, Bethesda MD 20814 pending sales look much like the previous two years (37 pending sales for April 2012 compared to 40 pending sales for April 2011 and 45 pending sales for April 2010; 129 pending sales Year-to-Date through April 30th 2012 compared to 127 pending sales the same time 2011 and 132 pending sales for the same time 2010).

Although there were 37 homes that sold during April 2012, there is a familiar tone compared to the 33 homes that sold during April 2011 and 36 homes that sold April 2010. Taking a broader view, the numbers are more consistent: 108 homes that sold Year-to-Date through April 2012 compared to 109 homes that sold during the same period 2011 and 108 homes that sold the same period 2010.

The concern is that although pending and sales are similar to previous years, there are fewer new listings during the month: 57 listings for April 2012 compared to 74 listings April 2011 and 63 listings April 2010. Cumulatively, the number of listings have declined: 186 listings Year-to-Date through April 30th compared to 209 listings the same period 2011 and 236 listings 2010.

Does Montgomery County MD April home sale data point to early market peak or slump

by Dan Krell © 2012
DanKrell.com

As some organizations and media outlets look toward pending sales as an indication of the market “turning the corner,” local home sale data may indicate something entirely different- an early peak to the spring home sale market. In November 2010, Fed Chairman, Ben Bernanke spoke to the National Association of Home Builders about the housing market. He indicated that economic and social factors, which resulted in a shift in the perception of home ownership has affected the housing market. Among such factors, reduced family formation has been highlighted in a recent Washington Post article that discussed a Pew Research finding that, “More than one in five adults between ages 25 and 34 live with their parents or in other “multi-generational” living arrangements, the highest level since the 1950s…”

Montgomery County MD home sale data reveal that although the 1,239 April 2012 pending home sales increased from the 970 pending home sales from April 2011, it is a far cry from the 1,505 April 2010 pending home sales (and we know 2010 was not the turning point for the housing market). Additional data is not as encouraging: the 1,469 homes listed in April 2012 is down from previous years (1,753 homes listed in April 2011 and 2343 homes listed in April 2010); and the 841 home sales in April 2012 is reduced from the 877 home sales in April 2011 and the 1071 home sales in 2010.

Montgomery County Home Sale Data April 2012

Montgomery County Home Sale Data April 2012

Local data in Bethesda, Chevy Chase, and Potomac are consistent with county-wide data and indicate that market, in deed, may have peaked in March-April.

New home listings for April 2012 in Bethesda MD, Chevy Chase MD, and Potomac MD have dropped from previous years. And although pending home sales are up from last year, the overall numbers do not exceed those of 2010 (except Chevy Chase). Homes that sold in April 2012 are lower than those sold in April 2011 or 2010 (or both).
