Suffolk Real Estate Market Report - March 2008 Little change is expected in Norfolk real estate sales of existing homes over the next few months, before notably improving during the second half of the year, according to the latest forecast by the National Association of Realtors. Lawrence Yun, NAR Chief Economist, said the market will come into clearer focus this summer. ”Existing home sales could start to show a sustained increase within a few months, unless there are some additional economic problems or excessive inflationary pressure,” he said. ”The wider access to affordable credit should increase sales activity notably this summer as pent-up demand begins to be met.” Let’s take a look at the Suffolk real estate market activity for this March to see how the spring is looking so far: Suffolk sales also declined in March by 5 percent compared to March 2007. Market times increased 31 percent, 89 days vs 68 days. The average sales price decreased in Suffolk to $263,396 or 18 percent. The median price also decreased by 12 percent to $256,000.
