Houston Housing market

(HAR Report): Sales of all property types totaled 11,348. That is up 58.3 percent from April 2020. Total dollar volume for the month rocketed 85.9 percent to just under $4 billion.

“In my 20 years in real estate, I have never seen such dramatic forces sweeping across the Houston housing market as we have experienced since the coronavirus pandemic began,” said HAR Chairman Richard Miranda with Keller Williams Platinum. “The market is humming along at a record pace, fueled by low mortgage rates despite dwindling inventory and rising prices. However, without a healthy boost in new listings in the weeks and months ahead, the current pace of sales cannot be sustained.”
