Hampton Roads home prices up by more than 10% in September

[email protected]_84 , , , ,

Homes in Hampton Roads are still selling quickly and often above the listing price with multiple offers, according to the latest monthly statistics from the Real Estate Information Network in Virginia Beach, or REIN.

For the first time in at least six years, the median price for a home sold in Hampton Roads rose by more than 10% compared with a year ago, according to the real estate multiple listing service. For several months, home sales have endured and even excelled during a global health pandemic that has caused other industries to greatly suffer.

REIN’s data indicate the median sales price for homes across the region in September was $275,000 versus $249,900 a year ago.

The number of homes for sale continued to shrink to record lows, dropping 42% to 4,839 houses across the South Hampton Roads and Peninsula regions versus 8,384 a year ago.

It was the largest such annual price gain in more than a decade.

Real estate agents sold 11,408 single-family homes, a record number of purchases for the month of September, when sales typically slow.

But not this year.

Record low mortgage rates have caused a run on home buying even in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Last month’s huge home sales increase is the fourth month in a row of double-digit percentage sales gains from 2019 levels, according to data from the Real Estate Center at Texas A&M University and the North Texas Real Estate Information Systems.

September’s year-over-year gain was the largest yet.

“It’s amazing that sales are up 27% over last years, but not surprising based on what I have been hearing,” said Paige Shipp, a housing analyst with CDCG Asset

Japan September Wholesale Prices Slump, Heightening Deflation Risk | Investing News

[email protected]_84 , , , , , , , , ,

TOKYO (Reuters) – Japanese wholesale prices fell 0.8% in September from the same month a year earlier, data showed on Monday, marking the seventh straight month of year-on-year declines and heightening the risk the country will slide back into deflation.

Squeezed mostly by soft global demand for commodities and Japanese machinery goods, the weakness in wholesale prices highlights the challenge Tokyo faces in cushioning the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the world’s third-largest economy.

The 0.8% fall in the corporate goods price index (CGPI), which measures the price companies charge each other for their goods and services, was bigger than a median market forecast for a 0.5% drop. It followed August’s 0.6% year-on-year decrease.

Wholesale prices also slid 0.1% in September from August, marking the first on-month drop in four months, the data released by the Bank of Japan (BOJ) showed.

L’ÎLE-DES-SŒURS, Quebec, Oct. 07, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Quebec Professional Association of Real Estate Brokers (QPAREB) has just released its most recent residential real estate market statistics for the Montreal Census Metropolitan Area (CMA), based on the real estate brokers’ Centris provincial database.

In total, 5,147 residential sales transactions were concluded in September 2020. This represents a 42 per cent increase compared to September of last year and a new sales record for a month of September.

Cumulatively since the start of the year, and compared to the same nine-month period in 2019, the real estate market in the Montreal CMA has finally recovered all the transactions lost in early spring due to the COVID-19 confinement measures.

Las Vegas home prices set record in September

[email protected]_84 , , , , , ,

Las Vegas home prices set another all-time high last month, continuing a “remarkable” streak amid an otherwise badly battered economy, a new report says.

The median sales price of previously owned single-family homes – the bulk of the market – was $337,250 in September, up 0.7 percent from the previous record, set in August, and 8.8 percent from a year ago, according to trade association Las Vegas Realtors.

Sales volume accelerated even faster, with buyers grabbing 3,270 houses last month, up 12.4 percent from August and 18.9 percent year-over-year.

Las Vegas’ tight inventory eased a bit, as 4,798 houses were on the market without offers at the end of September, up 3.4 percent from the end of August. But the tally of available listings was down 34.6 percent from September of 2019, LVR reported.

The association pulls data from its resale-heavy listing service.
