Residential Market Trends (Chico, CA)

First, let’s start with the Months Supply of Inventory, which is currently at a low 1.54. This indicates that there is a limited supply of homes available on the market. This low inventory can lead to increased competition among buyers, potentially driving up prices.

The 12-Month Change in Months of Inventory is showing a significant increase of +11.59%. This suggests that the market is becoming more balanced, with inventory levels rising over the past year. This could indicate a shift towards a more buyer-friendly market in the near future.

The Median Days Homes are On the Market is a short 12 days, indicating that homes are selling quickly in this market. This fast pace could be attributed to the high demand and limited supply of homes available.

The List to Sold Price Percentage is at a strong 98.3%, indicating that homes are typically selling close to their listing price. This can be a positive sign for sellers, as it shows that they are able to get close to their asking price in this market.

Lastly, the Median Sold Price is $490,000, providing a benchmark for the average price of homes sold in this market. This can be useful information for both buyers and sellers to understand the current pricing trends.

City of Chico planning $60 million in historic roadway construction

The City of Chico has announced six major projects, including road rehabilitation efforts on several key streets like Norte Dam Boulevard, East 20th Street, and Rio Lindo Avenue. The rehabilitation project, costing approximately $7 million, will begin in May and last three to four months, with advance notices and signage for any traffic impacts. These initiatives are funded through Measure H and grants, allowing the city to address pressing road issues. Additionally, a $29 million construction project will commence in May on Bruce Road, involving the addition of lanes and a larger bridge over Little Chico Creek. This project, the most expensive of the six, will be undertaken by Knife River Construction and is expected to result in severe road closures over the next year, although efforts will be made to keep portions of the road open. Ultimately, the goal is to convert all of Bruce Road from Highway 32 to Sky into four lanes, utilizing cost-effective concrete paving. The city aims to complete the road rehabilitation project by the end of fall.
