Wake Forest, NC Market Report for October 2008

The number of Active Listings in Wake Forest comparing the current year to 2007 has had a minimal increase of only 2%.  This lends to the stabilized Absorption Rate that we are currently seeing.  See next graph.

 

 Wake Forest is STILL under that National Trend for our Absorption Rate.  We have maintained an Absorption Rate of 9 for the last 5 months.  It will be interesting to see where this trend goes going into the Holiday Season.  While many sellers and buyers shy away from the housing market during this time it is ironically one of the best times of the year to buy or sell a home. 

 

Wake Forest maintains a healthy slice of the "Sales Pie" for the Wake County area.  North Raleigh/North Wake and the Cary/Morrisville/Apex areas are thus far the most prevalent for sales this year. 

 

 

The top selling development for ALL of Wake County is once again Heritage which is located right here in Wake Forest, NC.  For more information regarding Heritage, the above statistics or statistics tailored more towards another area in Wake County please feel free to email me or call - I will be happy to assist you.

*All of the above statistics were compiled using data from the September 2008 Market Update provided to members of the Triangle MLS.  All graphs were created by Leesa L. Finley and are my own material
