Malia’s comments

“Typically, November is among the slower months of the year in our market. Therefore it is remarkable to see these incredible surges in the number of sales numbers for in both homes and condos. Both housing types are still bumping along the top of their median sales prices. Also, the continued low days on market figures show just how low the available inventory is and the strong demand for housing. ”
