Spring has sprung and along with it so has buyer traffic. From my perspective as well as the perspective of other Realtors, buyer traffic is way up. Listings are getting much more attention in recent weeks, website traffic and inquiries are way up as well. But the ultimate gauge of activity and demand as I see it is the amount of pending sales out there. Yep, that’s up too.
More importantly, the gap between listings and pendings, my measures of supply and demand, is trending tighter. Sure, ’tis the spring season and we expect this to be the case. But with the last 2 years of price corrections and sales declines, many would-be buyers who have been waiting on the sidelines are beginning to hop of the bench and move forward.
So I’ll be keeping a close eye on the number of pending contracts in the City of Tampa to see if all this traffic is converted to more listings being sold. If you can get the financing or have the cash, it’s great to be a home buyer in Tampa. And if you’ve been considering a sale, we are approaching the busy season.
