According to the MLS stats, sales have been flat YoY for the past year or so, trending to down about 10% year over year during the past few months. Inventory has been increasing over the same period, and is now up 15-20% compared to the same time last year. Average prices are up several % in real dollars, though. It's not CA, FL, AZ, or MA, the sky isn't falling yet by any stretch, but the data from the summer months is a bit worrisome. But I'd need more than a few bad months to get seriously upset.
Subjectively, I worry that the $500K+ neighborhoods aren't going to have anyone that can afford them since the transplants that were driving that market can't transplant until they sell their house in their own (dead or dying) local real estate market. And the national builders that are really hurting in other markets may take semi-drastic measures to get what they can here since we still have a functioning RE market - you know, one with both sellers and buyers
Not sure what button I should push for this response
