Rosemount Housing Inventory Plummets, Closed Sales Increase

Realtors advise that the last piece of the housing market recovery will be an increase in sales price because of low inventory.

Overall, the Twin Cities real estate forecast is still chilly, but there are at least a few rays of sunshine poking through the clouds. In 2011, the median sales price of homes in the 13-county Twin Cities region fell to $150,000, down 11.7 percent from the already depressed levels of 2010. (The area’s median sales price peaked at $230,000 in 2006.) Rosemount's median home sales price was a little bit above the Twin Cities average for the year at $170,000, according to new statistics from the Minneapolis Area Association of Realtors, but got there after an 11 percent price decrease. However, December's median sales price in Rosemount was closer to the Twin Cities average, at $154,000 among 29 closed sales.  Inventory, however, fell a …

Rosemount Housing Inventory, Median Home Price Drops

Even with the significant drops, realtors promise there's still some good buys on the market.

Regionally, the Minneapolis Area Association of Realtors (MAAR) reported, the residential real estate market is still in the toilet--but at least the toilet is no longer plugged. The median home price in November was $149,250, down 10.1 percent from its already-depressed levels in the same month a year earlier. For Rosemount, the median home price dropped 14.5 percent from 2010 to 2011. For just November, median homes prices were at $198,000 in 2010 and decreased to $178,000 this year. That’s largely due to so-called “lender-mediated activity,” shorthand for foreclosures and short sales, which comprised 44.1 percent of all closed sales and 41.9 percent of new listings regionally. "The decline in median sales price reflects the type of …

Housing Market Takes Small Strides Toward Recovery

The latest Minneapolis Area Association of Realtors report indicates the housing market, including in the Rosemount area, is beginning to balance out.

The housing market is moving in a positive direction toward improvement, according to the latest Minneapolis Area Association of Realtors (MAAR) report. "Sellers listed 5,562 new homes on the market, down 16.8 percent from last year. Buyers entered into 3,752 purchase agreements, up 37.4 percent over September 2010 levels. That's the fifth consecutive month of double-digit, year-over-year gains in buyer demand—primarily driven by slowed activity at this time in 2010," MAAR said. MAAR also reports that the market is experiencing the largest inventory decline in more than seven years. Rosemount data shows similar trends. "A leaner inventory count combined with stronger purchase demand has moved the market toward balance," MAAR said. "The …
