November 2009 Tucson Housing Report

As we get closer to the end of 2009, we can see the positive effects of the tax credit. Home sales volume is up 35.34% over last year. New listings are down 3.16% over last year and down 23.63% over last month. Active listings continue to drop over last year by 20.59% but are up 2.21% over last month.

The extension of the First-Time Home Buyer tax credit should help continue to push the market forward. As you know, Congress has passed new legislation to extend the First-Time Home Buyer Tax Credit of up to $8,000 to first-time home buyers and up to $6,500 credit to current home owners until April 30, 2010. (See below for more information)

Another positive note is mortgage rates are continuing to fall. According to a survey by Freddie Mac, rates decreased to 4.71%, the lowest since the survey began in 1971. This should continue to help home sales.

While the holiday season is typically slower the numbers show a steady pace. We look forward to seeing the year-end statistics and summary next month.

New Adoption Center for the Humane Society of Southern Arizona in Tucson

On November 20th I was honored to share a very special day for the animals of Southern Arizona, the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony of the Humane Society of Southern Arizona Adoption Center at Park Place Mall.












This mall adoption site will be a wonderful alternative to “Puppy-Mill” pet stores that are normally found in shopping malls. It will also give homeless dogs and cats more exposure since many people can’t bring themselves to visit the shelter because they view it as a sad place. The Park Place Adoption Center is a happy place, painted with bright happy colors and fun accessories for the pets and humans. If you are not in need for a new furry family member you can still support the Center by going there to purchase collars, leashes, toys, cleaning products, and other pet related items.


































The comfortable Kitty-condo-displays can accommodate 17 cats and kittens and there is a doggie enclosure at the front window for dogs and puppies.
























The Humane Society of Southern Arizona has been helping homeless pets since 1936! We are very fortunate to have such a devoted organization giving voice to those that can’t speak.

I am excited about what this new adoption site can do to lessen the number of homeless pets in the Tucson and Southern Arizona community. I hope you will support it too.
