2013 College-Glen Real Estate Yearly Video Review




All-in-all a great year for the College-Glen neighborhood.  The first three months were white hot with low inventory and high buyer demand.  That formula created: multiple offers/bidding wars, increasing prices, and properties selling in less than a week.  In the fall, interest rates bumped up a bit and that caused the buyer demand to pull back.  In turn, the inventory trickled up and to close the year the market is much more balanced in the neighborhood now.  Buyers have a bit more to choose from while sellers are now competing with each other.

College-Glen Real Estate VIDEO Update - 4th Quarter 2013



Doug Reynolds, a Sacramento Area Realtor, lives and specializes in College-Glen Real Estate.  He provides a review of the 4th Quarter real estate in College Greens and Glenbrook.  Tons of great information about College-Glen can be found at his website: www.CollegeGlenRealEstate.com

The 4th quarter of 2013 finally saw the market slow down a little bit.  The first 3 quarters of the year were filled with multiple offers, rising prices and little inventory. That changed in the fall as buyer demand slowed down a bit, inventory slowly increased and the amount of sales were down from the 3rd quarter.  All in all, not a bad quarter for the neighborhood, just a little slower that the previous.

4th Quarter College-Glen Real Estate Update

Now that the year has ended we can take a look back at the 4th Quarter of 2013 in College-Glen Real Estate (College Greens / Glenbrook )


The market defanitely slowed down in the 4th Quarter.  The amount of sales dropped significantly from the 3rd Quarter.  That was due to lower buyer demand that was seen in College-Glen and also across the Sacramento area.  The lower demand created higher inventory and many of the homes on the market sat for longer periods of time and even needed price reductions to attract offers.  More homes for sale and less buyers caused the market prices to slightly decrease.  The homes that did sell had a combination of being marketed well, in good condition and priced appropriately.

Twitter version of 2013 Sacramento Real Estate Recap

I was recently asked and honored to share my insight about the 2013 Sacramento Real Estate market for Ryan Lundquist's amazing blog.  He compiled input from me and 11 other agents from around the area and asked for a twitter version recap.  Talk about a hard task but here's what i came up with:

"The market was in full sprint mode from January through July with prices skyrocketing, multiple offer competition, no inventory to speak of and cash buyers everywhere. As 2013 comes to an end, the market is taking a holiday breather where many cash investors have pulled back, inventory is trickling up and buyers are taking a bit more time to make a decision, as balance of power is being restored."

I'm looking forward to 2014 in Sacramento Real Estate.  It is shaping up to be an interesting year where it's anyone's guess what will happen for sure.  I think it will be a mixed bag of results where there's a little something for everyone: first time buyers will have a fair shot, move up buyers will be around again and actually be able to time their move to the new house while selling the old one, local investors will find some good deals here and there, short sales and foreclosures will still be scattered around and the values will bounce around but be up a little at the end of the year.

Here's the link to post so you can see everyone's thoughts.
