RELOCATING TO SACRAMENTO | www.sherripatterson.net | 916-801-1105 47 WITH LIMITED SUPPLY OF BOTH EXISTING and new single family residence housing, Sacramento’s average home values have increased dramatically over the last five years. Despite the higher sale prices, the average home is still only on the market for approximately nine days.
House prices in the Sacramento region continued the recent trend of robust increas- es during the first half of 2017. The median sale price for all houses in June 2017 was $374,000, which is an approximately 7% increase both from the fourth quarter of 2016 ($350,000) and from June of 2016 ($349,000). This makes it the 12th con- secutive quarter in which prices increased between 6.8% and 9.7% year-over-year, with an 8% average increase in the last three years.
In comparison, the Case-Shiller national home price index increased by 5.6% over the past year. The median price per square foot in the Sacramento metropolitan area (MSA) for existing single-family residences increased by 9% year-over-year, to $220. Year-over-year changes in price per square foot ranged from 10% in Sacra- mento County to 5% in Yolo County.
Sales of all homes (condominiums, existing, and new homes in the Sacramento MSA were essentially the same in the first two quarters of 2017 as in the same period in 2016: slightly under 20,000 units. For perspective, sales increased 14% in 2015 and 6% in 2016. Geographically, Yolo County experienced a 10% increase in sales activ- ity, while El Dorado County saw a 10% decrease.
The limited supply of both existing and new housing is the main reason for the ro- bust house price increases. The good news is that home construction and sales of new homes continue to trend upward. Sales of new homes increased by 16% year- over-year, from 2,196 in the first half of 2016 to 2,548 in the same period this year. Trends in the Sacramento Area Trends
Further, new homes represented 13.9% of all sales in 2017, up from 12.6% in the
REAL ESTATE first two quarters of 2016. However, it is worth noting that both new home inven- tory and the proportion of new homes in sales both remain far below pre-housing crisis levels. For instance, almost 16,500 new homes were sold in 2005, which rep- resented 28% of all home sales. Other reasons for rising house prices are declining unemployment rates, rising personal incomes, a flood of buyers from the Bay Area and low mortgage interest rates.
