Buyer or Seller Market in Sun Lakes
The Cromford Index is a resource of Cromford Associates, LLC that measures and tracks real estate in the entire Valley on a daily basis. An index of 100 represents a balanced market – neither buyer or seller advantage. As you can see from this chart in 2013 when the index was 369 it was a hot seller’s market. Currently the index is at 171.2 compared to 179.2 last year at this time. We are seeing buyers continue to make offers even throughout the summer. The issue for them is that there is little inventory from which to choose. All signs are pointing to a strong selling season, which officially kicks off in the fall and builds during the winter months. Historically, sales have been virtually nonexistent in the summer, but we are seeing an opposite trend the past few years.
