Nashville real estate - Home sales for September as record by the Greater Nashville association of realtors was not really news at all. Sales were down as expected across the area. Prices were also down as expected. The headline inventory levels were up, but for the first time, inventory levels of single family homes were below last year from 15,438 in 2007 to 15052 in 2008. This is a sign that the market is changing.
The statistics are as follows
Sept 2007 Sept 2008
All Closings 2587 2075
Residential 2014 1761
Condominium 415 228
Multi-Family 432 12
Farms/lots 126 74
The median price for residential Nashville real estate was $182,291 in September 2007 compared to $169,900 in September 2008. Current inventory and sales levels indicate a 7 month supply of single family homes, with compares very favorably with most of the country. What we are seeing is lower sales numbers, but even lower housing starts. At sometime in the near future I expect an inventory shortage, as jobs are still here, homes are still selling, and builders have slowed dramatically.
