Real Estate Home Sales Indicators February 2009
February 23rd, 2009 Categories: Chester County, Delaware County, Market Trends, Montgomery County
Those of us living and working in the Chester County Pa and the Philadelphia Main Line Real Estate Market can benefit from knowing the important National Housing and Home Sales Indicators* Several Real Estate Housing and Home Sales indicators will be updated this week.
We’ll be watching these Housing and Economic indicators and keeping you informed as to the overall condition of the Housing Industry as measured by these key National Housing Indicators as we move into Spring. This is a photograph I took last Spring of a flowering Cherry Tree, along the path of a walk with Daisy in Chesterbrook. I’m looking forward to Spring! It’s such a hopeful time!
“All Real Estate Is Local” as you’ve heard me say many times, but still these National Housing Indicators help us frame our Local Chester County Main Line Pa Real Estate Statistics as we review and evaluate our Local Real Estate Market Trends in our Market Reports for Chester County, Delaware County and Montgomery County.
- Existing Home Sales were up 6.5% in December 2008 and will update this week on February 25, 2009
- New Home Sales were down 14.7% as of December 2008 and will update today February 23, 2009
- Housing Affordability Index was at 158.8, up 15.6% as of December 2008 and will update February 26, 2009

From my unofficial listening to Daily News Reporting, Open Houses, Supermarket, friends and Daisy walking indicators, I have to say that I’m encouraged that the Consumer Confidence Indicator was only down .9%. How about you? What do you think?
