Posted by Tre Pryor, Editor-in-Chief on April 04, 2010 in Trends/Statistics tagged with , ,

We experienced a much better month in March than February. Every area in Louisville had increases in the number of homes sold (Area 0 stayed even with 10), some realizing a gain of almost 100%—Area 8-Hurstbourne/Middletown/Anchorage went from 44 sales in February to 90 this past month. Sale averages, however, did continue to decline in most areas. As always, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

It's always interesting to me to see how headlines are formed. Sometimes they convey the true meaning of the article but many times they don't. Take this heading from The Wall St. Journal: Price Cuts Spur Home Sales Home sales rising should be great news right? Well, they seem to feel the need to couch it alongside some negative news—the price cuts. Are we sure that it was the price cuts the forced the increase? I'm sure they played a role but many factors, including things like the weather, affect home sale numbers. Then the WSJ does it again with the tagline: Largest Monthly

I started collecting some news links when the site went down so here they are en masse. Mortgage rates at 37-year low Some folks are going to be kicking themselves when the rates rise and they didn't take advantage of them.

The number of sales is down this month, as expected. Each year as we head into the Holiday season activity dies down then starts back up (slowly) after the New Year. But it's surprising to see prices up in most of the areas. In particular, Areas 7 and 8 saw solid increases and North Oldham went from an average value of $269,452 to $342,139. Now, averages fluctuate more erratically when the sample size is low so we can't put too much stock in these numbers. But it is interesting to see these value increases given the overall downward trend for the year. If you have any questions, please
