Des Moines Weekly Real Estate Statistics 7/18/08

Summertime heat.  Summertime Thunderstorms.  We seem to be in that cycle of HOT daytime temperatures followed by evening thunderstorms.  The real estate market is also showing signs of heating up.  We are in our third week in a row with Active listing counts below the 4,000 level. 

In the next couple weeks, I’m going to be changing the statistics that I post to more accurately reflect the state of the market.  The focus will be on offers written and accepted each week.  In the meantime, here are this weeks stats!
