Good Morning!

Here's hoping you had a great weekend!

Below you'll find the market pulse reflecting last week's activity. With the school year winding down and the summer vacation season underway, we saw a huge increase in pending properties last week! The 61% increase reflects 47 homes going under contract, the total number of ALL properties sold the week prior! This is fantastic news and a trend that we expect to continue throughout the summer months!

Enjoy these latest numbers and have a great week!
