Inventories have increased with the summer market and sales are
starting to take off in Rockford over the last 3 months. The absorption
rate is 8 months which is a normal market range for our area.
It appears that smaller homes are selling faster than the larger ones.
This is true across our market area, as people reassess their housing
needs. It appears that many are choosing to downsize in this economy.
It is important that you have your home in great condition
and priced correctly. Over-priced homes and tired looking homes
will not sell for top dollar in this buyer’s market.
