Waiting for New Escrows
Posted on Monday, August 20th, 2007 at 6:21pm.We're sure homes will sell. But the mortgage market mess has clearly disrupted the local real estate market.
It has been 2-3 weeks since a new deal was made, depending on which part of MB you're looking in. (Remember we track only SFRs west of Sepulveda.) Here are the number of days since a new escrow last posted:
UPDATE 1: The first version of this story had a small math error, now fixed above.
UPDATE 2: A Hill Section home that we simply never saw on the MLS (1008 11th; new contrux at $2.9m) went into escrow Saturday. So there was a sale, but not from the homes MBC is tracking from the MLS. For now we're going to leave that 21 day figure above.
