Loudoun County March 09 Home Sales Stats
March 30th, 2009 Categories: Market Statistics
To understand statistics you need to view them for an extended amount of time…. I am not convinced that 4 months is enough so you can view other periods by clicking the market stats link on the right…
- Two reasons sales are down… A- There are fewer homes available. B- Many that are under contract are short sales that take longer to close (hence the large number of pending sales that seem to be piling up every month).
- Days On Market- This is a deceiving number. If you removed the short sales that are actually under contract and the new construction listings that don’t change status, I believe you would notice that homes are typically selling in an average of 40 days (I made up this number but I consider it relatively conservative).
- Active Listings- Just so you realize how low the inventory currently is…. last year in March there were 3,427 homes on the market.

Here are the home sales stats for 20148 (Southern Ashburn). These stats are also amazing (like 20147 stats) where 50% of the homes listed are under contract. The truth is that more like 75% of them are since many short sale agents don’t change their status.
The reason so few have actually sold is that many of the homes under contract are short sales which can take months to go to settlement.

Belmont, Ashburn Village, and Ashburn Farm March Home Sales Stats

The home sales in these communities are astonishing. At this pace, if no other homes came on the market all of the homes would be sold by next month.
** Notice that many of the homes under contract haven’t settled. This is because over a third of the homes under contract are short sales which require months to go to settlement. The majority of other sales are foreclosures.

Loudoun County Home Sale Statistics
February 19th, 2009 Categories: Market Statistics, Real Estate News
Here are this months current home sale stats in Loudoun County.
These stats are very interesting but hide the current blitz in taking place in Loudoun to find a home. There is such a lack of solid inventory available in Loudoun that buyers are getting very anxious. How anxious??? Anxious enough to wait on short sales… Look closely at the pending home sales in November (394). In December 389 of them closed (almost 100%). BUT- With 397 pending sales in December only 284 of them have closed within January. That is only around 70% of them closing meaning that settlements are being delayed…. SHORT SALES.
When it’s the only option…. you bight the bullet.
