Spring Texas Pending Home Sales Jump 50%

Spring Texas pending home sales jump 50% week over week. That’s right 50% week over week. Declining mortgage interest rates have buyers out shopping and buying. Mortgage interest rates have declined 1% since October 2023. Buyer demand has not only eaten up all the new listings it also has taken a bite out the total active listings. Months of inventory ticked down from 2.4 to 3 months. Six months of inventory is considered a balanced market. Less than six months is considered a sellers market.

Mortgage interest rates are expected to further decline in 2024 and as they do buyer demand will heat up and the race will be on. For those buyers who are waiting until 30 year mortgage interest rates are in the 2% range … Fugeddaboudit. Those rates were a fluke brought on by an economic event that we hope will never be duplicated.
