Residential Properties Fly Off The Market
Residential properties are flying off the market in Southeast Michigan. The average time a home spends on the market dropped from 66 days in March of 2020 to 38 days last month. Properties are moving so fast that open houses aren’t necessary. First time home buyers and those lacking a hefty down payment are struggling against the competitive market.
Millennial Home Buyers’ Dreams Fall on Hard Times
Millennials make up the largest population of homebuyers, but many are having a hard time finding homes within their budgets. In many Southeast Michigan areas, the median home listing price has jumped by 15%-19% when compared to previous years. Buyers are approaching the home buying experience like an auction, some even willing to skip home appraisals and inspections. In Michigan, homes are moving 34% faster with only 44 days on the market.
DTE Energy Pulls Out of Downtown Ann Arbor
DTE Energy is seeking a buyer for its office building on 414 S. Main Street in downtown Ann Arbor. DTE is accepting offers for the property but has yet to set an asking price. In April 2020, the utility company pulled 400 workers out of the Ashley Mews office. Those employees began to work from home amidst the pandemic. DTE has over 5,000 employees who are working from home. The 400 employees from the Ashley Mews office will either continue to work from home or relocate to the Detroit headquarters. The utility company is protecting the arrangements they have with other tenants in the building, so the remaining occupancy in the building will remain unfazed.
