Housing market stuck in biggest freeze in a decade

New listings in June take a big year-over-year hit in LA County

CA home prices keep rising

Los Angeles metro area average home price up $25,000 from April 2023 to May 2023.

1/3 of home buyers are paying in cash – who are they?

Redfin found that 33.4% of buyers opted for an all-cash deal in April, the highest that mark has been since 2014.

Baby Boomers make up the largest share of those buyers with more than half of people age 58 to 76 paying in all-cash.

β€œHomeowners have really been the winners in that scenario … they have equity and are able to make a move with paying all cash,” Jessica Lautz, National Association of Realtors deputy chief economist and vice president of research, told Nexstar.

Another trend that stood out in the data – single women are the most likely to pay in all-cash, Lautz found.

28% single women

27% married couples

20% single men

20% unmarried couples

When it comes to the race of all-cash buyers, Lautz found that 23% were white/Caucasian, 15% Black/African-American, 8% Asian/Pacific Islander, and 8% Hispanic/Latino.

We just had the slowest-selling April in 35 years

Home sales across Southern California have fallen steeply, with the number of deals down by almost half.

Buyers closed on 13,201 single-family homes and condos in April, down 46 percent in a year, the Orange County Register reported, citing figures from CoreLogic.

It was the third biggest, year-over-year drop since records began in 1988.

The wrench in the machine is high mortgage rates and low housing inventory, with the local housing market seeing its slowest-selling April in 35 years. It was also the 18th-worst sales month total on record.

Sales in Los Angeles were down 39 percent, according to the Register.

The Southern California market has a 2.5-month supply of single-family homes waiting to be sold, 34 percent below the average since 2008.

The 5 hottest real estate markets in the U.S. are...

Sorry Los Angeles... you didn't make the cut!

A midsize town in Georgia about 75 minutes by car from Atlanta is the nation's hottest real estate market, as a tide of renters flee pricey cities in search of homes in more affordable places.

That's the takeaway from a new Bankrate analysis of nearly 200 housing markets around the country. The personal finance website ranked the top most attractive and active housing market and found that Gainesville, Georgia, was No.1. Bankrate based its ranking on factors such as which cities had the strongest job growth, fastest population growth, largest home value appreciation, lowest unemployment rate and highest rate of homes for sale.

Rounding out the top five real estate markets were:

-Knoxville, Tennessee

-Fort Myers, Florida

-Sarasota, Florida

-Charlotte, North Carolina

Have you ever thought of moving to one of these 5 cities?
