May Irvine Market Update

*|MC:SUBJECT|*

Hope everyone had a lovely Mother's Day!  So what's happening in the real estate market?  The real estate industry has adapted to selling homes in this new COVID-19 environment.  Buyers are becoming more accustomed to 3D virtual tours and viewing properties with protective face masks while respecting proper social distancing protocol.  As a result, it is not surprising that demand has increased by 9% in the past two weeks, growing from 1,080 to 1,172 pending sales. 

The market is thawing and we are past the worst of it with demand now on the rise.  Mortgage rates reached an all-time low last week, dropping to an average of 3.23% across the country.  However, there is still a huge shortage in inventory and many buyers are still waiting on the sidelines for the perfect home.


Included below is your 60-day and 12-month Irvine Real Estate market snapshot. I am your local resource for all your real estate needs. Referrals are always appreciated.  Stay safe everyone!
