Early signals from Redfin’s Real-Time Demand Pulse indicate that regardless of what’s happening in the broader economy, housing prices will keep getting better. The number of Redfin clients making offers fell just 4 percent in August–an improvement of nearly ten percentage points compared to the same period a year ago.
The number of offers placed by Redfin clients continued to outpace 2011 in August 2012, while tours followed roughly the same trajectory as last year. Taken together, these trends indicate that the strength the market has seen this summer will continue into the fall.
