The month of November continued with our typical seasonal transition into a quieter local market where the real estate activity takes a back seat to holiday activities and preparations. This year is no different in this regard. We saw this trend begin in October and it has continued through the month of November, pretty much, as expected.
In October we saw our numbers come down off the highest monthly sales volume for the calendar year notched in September. October's activity settled back to a more typical monthly sales volume with 138 new residential properties going under agreement. In November we see that numbers dip yet again, dropping down to 103 residential properties going under agreement for the month. Pending residential sales data for the month of November 2011 also indicated a 0.325 % decrease in the median sale price recorded at $199,250. and a 4.132 % decrease in the mean sale price that was tallied at $227,956. These sales statistics cover the towns of Dartmouth, Fall River, Little Compton, RI, Somerset, Swansea, Tiverton, RI, and Westport. They reveal monthly activity for residential properties that went under agreement from 11/01/2011 through to 11/30/2011 in our local market area as serviced by the H3MLS-Property Information Network. The upside to this time of year is that quieter months in the local real estate market can translate into enhanced buyer opportunities, especially with the historically low mortgage interets rates that are being shopped around.
