Irvine Market Update - December 🏡

*|MC:SUBJECT|*

The Holiday Season is in full swing and many buyers and sellers are taking a break to enjoy this time with family and friends.  

  • Active Inventory dropped another 6% in the past two weeks. The fewest number of homes are placed on the market in December. Inventory will continue to plunge by year’s end and will hit a new record low upon ringing in the New Year. Last year, there were 131% more homes than today due to a delay in the Spring Market because of Covid.
  • Demand plunged by 12% in the past two weeks. Such low inventory combined with the Holiday Market has sidelined many prospective home buyers. Many buyers are ultimately taking a break until the start of 2022 just around the corner. Last year, demand was 31% more than today with more inventory.
  • Days on Market - With an enormous drop in demand compared to the smaller drop in supply, the Expected Market Time (the number of days to sell all Orange County listings at the current buying pace) increased from 20 to 21 days. At 21 days, it is an extremely insane, Hot Seller’s Market.

Market Action Index
Comparison rate of sales versus inventory
 
The market continues to get hotter. More sales demand and fewer homes listed have contributed to a relatively long run of increasing prices. Current supply and demand levels show no sign of prices changing from their current trend.

This Month's Feature... Academic Leadership!  

Hi, I'm Adriana Hill! Years ago, I was told by my daughter’s teacher that she needed to improve her reading comprehension skills or risk falling behind. Certainly not what any parent wants to hear! After countless emotional hours searching online for strategies, I knew I had to find a tutor. I realized that my family was not unique in this— every child, no matter how gifted, focused, or capable, could use an academic boost and specialized training in some areas. Together with my husband David, we now own and operate several local Tutoring Clubs, helping hundreds of students spanning pre-K through High School graduation! Regardless of the subject, Tutoring Club provides an individualized education plan for every single student. The Hills welcome all neighbors to receive a free academic skills assessment and/or trial session!

Congratulations Hill Family on the exceptional work you are doing for our children!

Call today for a free trial session!
