March 2014 Update North County Monthly Market Trends

February sales were below average for this time of the year and inventory at 611 detached homes is way up on the very low figure of 431 we had this time last year. Distressed homes are running about 10% with 20 out of 216 sales short or bank owned homes. Just a year ago 65 out of 252 were distressed and in February 2009 152 out of 211. We are certainly well out of the real estate recession. We still see many well priced homes selling in two weeks or less. Certainly in Carlsbad and Encinitas this is true. Continuing USA economic concerns and also more global tension than we have seen in a very long time are not helping matters. Sellers you really should be thinking of selling now as prices shot up last year and have not moved back nor have they moved up much in the last few months. The stock market did the same thing recently sharply up and just now a sett back.
