Omaha Real Estate Market – October, 2009

The numbers for the Omaha real estate market are in for the month of October and they are a little disappointing. Based on the rate of sales there is currently just over a six month supply of homes to sell. This is the largest supply of homes since February 2009.

Total Number For Sale

5276

Total Number of Accepted Offers

868

Total Number of Closed Sales

810

% of sellers that accepted an offer

16.45%

Absorption rate in months

6.08

Much of this is due to the looming expiration of the $8,000 First Time Home Buyers Tax Credit. If this were to be extending, as some in Congress are proposing, I expect that sales would pick up a bit.
