Today’s post will look at the Ventura County real estate market in August 2017. Inventory has been around the same level for most of the year, coming in at a little over 2 month’s worth of inventory in August. Number of sold homes increased since July, as did average listing price and average sale price. A cool down normally occurs as we head towards the holiday season, but with inventory so low, it remains to be seen what will actually happen. We’ll be back next month to see what the end of summer has in store for the Ventura County real estate market.
For purposes of this and future blog posts, Ventura County statistics are based off of the following ten cities in Ventura County: Camarillo, Fillmore, Moorpark, Ojai, Oxnard, Port Hueneme, Simi Valley, Santa Paula, Thousand Oaks, and Ventura. This data is pulled directly from the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) and may not contain information on properties that were sold off market. Number of homes sold does not include residential income, lots and lands, or commercial.
If you know anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home in the near future, please feel free to share this post with them.
