Upturn In Sales Predicted

by The Hat Team

"Home sales are projected to move in a relatively narrow range with a gradual
upturn becoming more pronounced by the end of the year according to the latest
forecast by the National Association of Realtors. Overall housing levels are
historically strong, but sales remain sluggish compared to the recent boom."
 

However, May statistics show the Midtown Montgomery real estate market
to be holding its own, but with soft prices.
 
 
The number of single family homes 
in Midtown Montgomery (Midtown consists of neighborhoods south of I-85 between
Exits 1 and 6) that sold in May, increased by 1 home or 2 percent.  At the same
time, the number of pending listings decreased by only 20 homes or 20 percent.
