想要不落人後嗎?現在正是時候

Does your current house fit your needs? Does it seem like everyone else is moving up and moving on to more luxurious surroundings? Are you wondering what it would take to start living your dream life?
您現在的房子是否符合需求?是否您身邊的家人朋友都搬家至更適合更豪華的房子?您想知道如何開始過夢想中的生活嗎?
Market conditions around the country have presented an opportunity like no other for those who are looking to make the jump to a premium or luxury home.
目前的房屋市場情況為所有想要搬家至更豪華房屋的人們提供了一個好機會。
The National Association of Realtors reports that national inventory levels are now at a 4.3-month supply. A normal market, where prices appreciate with inflation, has 6–7-months inventory. The national market has echoed the conditions felt in the starter and trade-up markets as inventory has declined year-over-year for 25 consecutive months.
全國房地產經紀人協會報告指出,目前全國出售屋庫存為4.3個月的供應量。 一個依據正常通貨膨脹而價格上漲的市場,需要有6–7個月的庫存量,全國庫存量已經連續25個月下降。
The chart below shows the relationship between the inventory of homes for sale and prices.
下圖顯示出售房屋庫存量與房屋價格之間的關係。

According to Trulia’s latest Inventory Report, the inventory of homes for sale in the two lower priced markets has dropped by double digit percentages over the last 12 months (16% for starter and 13% for trade-up homes). While the inventory of homes in the premium home category has dropped by only 4%.
根據Trulia的最新庫存報告,兩個較低價格市場的房屋庫存量在過去12個月中下降了兩位數(適合首次購屋房屋為16%,升級房屋為13%),而高檔房屋庫存僅下降了4%。
This has created a seller’s market in the lower-priced markets, as 54% of homes were on the market for less than a month in the last Realtors Confidence Index, and a buyer’s market in the luxury market, where homes were on the market for an average of 160 days according to the Institute for Luxury Home Marketing.
這造成了低價房屋市場為賣家市場,上一期的房地產經紀人信心指數報告指出,有54%的房屋在上市不到一個月成功出售,而在高檔房屋市場中仍是買家市場,根據豪華房屋行銷學院報告指出,高檔房屋平均需要160天成功出售。
