There's No Thanksgiving Break for the Houston Housing Market
Despite the Thanksgiving holiday, Houston housing never skipped a beat in November as buyers steered the market through positive territory even as inventory hovered at historically low levels! The $500K to $1M price point led the way in another strong month of home sales!
“Throughout the pandemic, the Houston housing market has been unpredictably strong and November was no exception,” said HAR Chairman Richard Miranda. “We remain on track for a record 2021, and the Greater Houston Partnership (GHP) sees positive conditions for local employment going into 2022, which is good news for real estate.”
