Pricing on single family homes in Fairfield is lower for actives and solds- but up on pending sales. The Township has higher pending prices however actives and solds are holding steady. The condo market in both area reflects lower prices for active and sold properties.-however closed prices are inching up. In Fairfield Township a higher priced unit is pending-so the pending price jumped this month.

The tax credit(s) helped the real estate market in the Fairfield School District- we’ll have to see how sales are this month to determine if we can sustain the modest increase in sales.

A successful show at CiTirama closed on June 13th and the event reawakened the dreams of building a new home for lots of people.

In the 4 counties (Butler, Warren, Hamilton and Clermont) there are 10,436 single family homes listed for sale and 832 are new construction. Some of the “new houses” are simply a piece of land and picture- waiting for a buyer. Some of the houses are in various stages of completion.
New construction availability within some school districts:

The availability of new housing stock is a good indicator of the stability of the real estate market in greater Cincinnati.

And while new homes are beginning to pop up here and there- the area has not recovered to the point where builders can afford to have several empty homes for sale at one time.  So if you are even thinking (remotely) about new construction- start looking now.  If you decide on a builder or area and have to wait for something to be built to your specs- the time-frame can be anywhere from 3 months to a year.

If you need scoping out an area or a builder- call or email.

Make sure you head to Village Green in Fairfield tomorrow for the Village Green Fine Art Fair.

Saturday from 11-5…lots to do and see. Parking is available all around the Village Green area
