Camas Washington Real Estate -- November Home Sales
showing more action than October!
With the Interest Rates making their last stand at such low levels, a third more buyers put their purchase bids in. Earlier this month we've logged into the Camas MLS to see if real estate within the confines of Camas had any changes. Here is what we have to report:
From this quick look at the home sales action we see 19 more Active listings with the mix consistently weighted relative to the distressed property category levels
at 1/3rd of the existing inventory. However, the distressed Pending Sales did
jump from just over 38.5% up to 52.6% . The number of Closed Sales is 4 homes lower than last month.
As we are in the
end of Fall Season the mortgage interest rates have now risen from the low 4's or high 3's for a 30 year fixed rate mortgage!
The Chart Below compares current Camas Washington Home Sale Prices and Trends with other nearby Towns: Vancouver WA, Washougal and Portland Oregon:
From this quick review we see an earlier strong upward "blip" in the Average Camas Home Sales Price, which moderated downward and now leveling-to-drifting-lower. With the average Camas Home price generally higher than the Portland / Vancouver Metro area average, it is reasonable to expect a somewhat slower sales picture for this relatively small area.
If you are looking to purchase a home in Camas now is an excellent time! Camas is located on the north shore of the Columbia River and features a relatively mild climate and excellent economic base. Our featured neighborhood this month: Lacamas Shores Homes For Sale,
