Marin home prices tick up 4.23% in July.
After two consecutive months of declines, the average price of a single-family home in Marin bounced back last month. In July, the average price came in at $1,087,463, up 4.23 percent from June. July’s average price marks a 5 percent increase from a year ago, and the number of homes sold in Marin was roughly the same.
Overall, July’s report looks positive. Especially considering summer is a particularly slow season for the housing market and a broader look at Marin home prices this year seems to indicate the market is making a recovery. Prices are up 11% from Q1 to Q2. Still, it’s a yo-yo economy with some uncertainty ahead.

According to Freddie Mac, mortgage rates are at their lowest level in half-century.
Freddie Mac today released the results of its Primary Mortgage Market Survey in which the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage (FRM) averaged 4.56 percent with an average 0.7 point for the week ending July 22, 2010, down from last week when it averaged 4.57 percent. Last year at this time, the 30-year FRM averaged 5.20 percent.
The decline in mortgage rates over the past few weeks echoes the recent signs of weakening confidence in the strength of the national economy. Fortunately, things are faring much better for the Marin housing market. Marin home prices have stabilized for the most part, and buyers are taking advantage of all-time record low rates.

Mortgages are cheaper today than they’ve been in a half-century. The last time they were any cheaper was the 1950s, when most loans lasted just 20 or 25 years.
