In the month of February there were 26% less closings than there were in February 2009. This is the second month that sales were down more than 20%. Let’s blame on the unusually clod weather and look ahead to better days as the temperatures warm up.

Here are the numbers:

Active listings for sale in the Greater Baton Rouge real estate market 3489, pending sales 932. I like seeing that number come up from the low 700’s in January. It’s been around 1000 for a long time.
