March came roaring in like a lion in the real estate market as buyers literally surged in once the snow melted and the sun started to shine making our world green again, so next month’s numbers will be impressive.
The driving part of the surge was buyers at the lower end buying homes that allowed people to move up to larger homes in these zip codes. The $8,000 first time buyer credit pushed the move-up buyer who could get a credit up to $6,500 when they entered into a contract by April 30th and settle by the end of June.
But please know that this information is reported from MRIS which is not guaranteed to be 100% accurate but should be considered pretty darn close.
Keep in mind, mortgage rates were still super low (around 5%).
