These numbers are for Ada and Canyon County.
The PTC Index this month posted the second-highest register at 356 points signaled sustained growth and a robust summer activity. Building permits posted an 18 percent decline over the prior month; permit filings are down by 33 percent from a year ago. New home sales, however, remained steady from May to June with 411 units sold – an increase of 15 percent from a year ago.
Existing home sale volume remained relatively unchanged from the month prior as well and are down nearly seven percent from a year ago. The Days on Market average for June was 26 days which is one of the most constrained inventory months in recent memory. Low inventory is without a doubt one of the major reasons for the little change in activity in the existing home and new home sale sectors. Refinance activity posted 952 filings which is a decline of nearly 18 percent from the month prior due to the continued increases to the financial bond. However, refi activity is still 41 percent from a year ago. A major increase this month was the average Ada/Canyon sales price. With a boost of nearly six percent, the average is the highest ever since we began the PTC Index settling at $307,712 – an increase of over 17 percent versus June 2017.

If you are deaf or hard of hearing, there are several accessibility features available to you. Transcripts A text transcript is a text equivalent of audio information that includes spoken words and non-spoken sounds such as sound effects. NAR is working on adding transcripts to all scripted video and audio content. Captioning A caption is transcript for the audio track of a video presentation that is synchronized with the video and audio tracks. Captions are generally rendered visually by being superimposed over the video, which benefits people who are deaf and hard-of-hearing, and anyone who cannot hear the audio (e.g., when in a crowded room). Most of NAR's video content includes captions. Learn how to turn captioning on and off in YouTube. Volume controls Your computer, tablet, or mobile device has volume control features. Each video and audio service has its own additional volume controls. Try adjusting both your device's volume controls and your media players' volume controls to optimize your listening experience. |
