Market Update-Q1 2024

I like to look at data quarter by quarter especially when we have had few transactions and we expect low transaction rates to continue. As a whole, we’ve had continued price growth. Corona del Mar had 3 sales in Q4 that were all over 20 million and those sales slightly skewed the data. I don’t think this reflects a major correction there by any means. Our demand continues to outpace demand and continues to drive pricing.

The fed has given us hope regarding rates expected to come down. For most borrowers, rates have already begun to come down from their highs just before Thanksgiving. Lower rates make it easier for buyers to purchase property either being able to afford more home or have a lower mortgage rate.
