Montgomery AL Real Estate Market Trends
Little change is expected in Montgomery AL real estate sales of existing homes over the next few months, before notably improving during the second half of the year, according to the latest forecast by the National Association of Realtors.
Lawrence Yun, NAR Chief Economist, said the market will come into clearer focus this summer. “Existing home sales could start to show a sustained increase within a few months, unless there are some additional economic problems or excessive inflationary pressure,” he said. “The wider access to affordable credit should increase sales activity notably this summer as pent-up demand begins to be met.”
