First, what happened last year. We bounced off the bottom set in August 2011 through June of 2012, on average 35%. But by the time we hit June/July of 2012 we saw inventory grow and new to the market home sellers started pricing up an additional 10-20% from the last sale. Buyers then pulled back and the market went flat until March/April. Let me qualify this with the fact this is what the numbers say and what I saw, but I also saw pockets break pattern. Some were late to the recovery, others still controlled by Short Sales and others still low inventory.

We are seeing the same pattern this summer. Let me explain through an example.

Let me use a $300,000 home as an example. Or one worth $300k in March of this year.

Price $300k multiple offers sells for $306-310k

Next month a similar home goes on the market at $310k and sells for $316,0000. This pattern continue s until this particular home is selling for around $330,000. It made a 10% jump in values over a few months.

Then, the next seller lists for $375,000. so does another and another. Or the next month or so. But none sell. The buyers have been watching this action on their portal. They know the homes are over priced. Now it takes price reductions to find the market. The buyers in turn see the reductions along with building inventory for their personal search. When this happens, the buyers no longer feel compelled to write full price offers.
