Redfin says US housing demand is cooling


Ben MillerContributing Editor- Puget Sound Business Journal

U.S. housing demand cooled off considerably last month, according to Seattle online real estate company Redfin.

Redfin said that nationally, July home tours were down 3.5 percent from June. A year earlier during the same time, tours were up 3.1 percent. And offers for homes in July fell 11 percent from June. A year earlier, home offers were flat.

"Although there are finally more homes for sale to satisfy pent-up demand after months of historically low inventory, buyers are not responding. This is probably due to higher interest rates and home prices, which together are pricing some buyers out of the market. Buyer fatigue after the cut-throat competition of spring and early summer is also a likely factor," Redfin said in a statement.
