June 2024
U.S. existing-home sales declined for the third consecutive month, as higher mortgage rates and rising sales prices hindered market activity during what has traditionally been one of the busiest months of the year. According to the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR), sales of previously owned homes dipped 0.7% month-over-month and 2.8% year-over-year, to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.11 million units.
New Listings in Staten Island decreased 5.5 percent to 446. Pending Sales were up 7.5 percent to 357. Inventory levels fell 17.3 percent to 1,198 units. Prices continued to gain traction. The Median Sales Price increased 9.4 percent to $716,500. Days on Market was down 17.4 percent to 71 days. Sellers were encouraged as Months Supply of Inventory was down 17.1 percent to 3.9 months.
Nationally, total housing inventory grew 6.7% month-over-month to 1.28 million units heading into June, for a 3.7 months’ supply at the current sales pace, according to NAR. However, the increase in supply has yet to temper home prices, which have continued to rise nationwide. At last measure, the median existing-home price climbed to $419,300, a 5.8% increase from the same period last year and a record high for the month.
