The Market Bulletin

Oh how I’ve longed to write this article. We have been tracking the daily movements in the Tallahassee real estate market for well over 2 years now, and reporting our findings at The Market Bulletin twice per week since March of 2008. Early on, we discovered that we could track the trend of daily buyer [...]

After reading The State of the Nation’s Housing 2009 from the Joint Center for Housing Studies of Harvard University, it became clear to me that much of the rest of the country is already seeing some signs of a housing market turn. More importantly, it made me fully aware of the fact that many learned people are seeing reasons why it should and will be occurring.

But how do you predict the turn of the housing market in Tallahassee? There are so many factors involved that you cannot simply point to any one factor, so I thought I’d summarize why I think I know when the turn will begin.

As we have discussed often in the past, supply and demand will rule every and any market over the long haul.

Right now, our graph shows us that we currently have 954 fewer homes on the market than we did one year ago. That is GOOD NEWS for the Tallahassee real estate market. Reduction of the glut of inventory is very important in getting this market back on stable ground.

There has been little good news to report from the Tallahassee real estate market lately, but I am seeing the beginning of what I hope are trends that will lead to the bottom of this market, and the turn-around thereafter. The Tallahassee home inventory reports are updated through yesterday at The Market Bulletin, and I [...]

As I was assembling all of the charts, graphs and analysis of the Tallahassee housing market this past weekend, I had a very strong suspicion that I wasn’t going to find good news. I had already performed a preliminary analysis by downloading  January sales from the Tallahassee Board of REALTORs Multiple Listing Service (MLS), and [...]
