Weekly Housing Market Activity Report for the Twin Cities

For Week Ending October 12, 2019
Publish Date: October 21, 2019 • All comparisons are to 2018

In the last month, mortgage rates have fallen to their lowest monthly average in

more than three years, and now Fannie Mae is predicting that continued low rates,
and possibly lower rates, are expected in 2020. These historically low mortgage
rates have and will continue to support buyer demand and may create additional lift
to home prices as lower financing costs give buyers the ability to offer more to
secure their dream home.

• New Listings increased 7.3% to 1,496
• Pending Sales decreased 5.9% to 1,036
