BUYERS

Make Your Move. Selection Is Strong!  But Shrinking.


SELLERS

Selling Conditions Are Improving.


Talking Points

  • There are 597 active listings to choose from between $169,999 to $7,259,000.
  • Inventory is down 17.31% compared to last years selection at this time. [ 597 | 722 ]
  • Listings placed under contract in December  were UP 1.6%.   [ 125 | 123 ]

  • Average Days On Market for unsold listings  = 99 Days.
  • Average Days On Market for listing placed under contract in December = 77 Days.

In Conclusion:

Sellers:  Competition among sellers remains strong .  On a positive note, conditions for sellers is improving.  We expect buyer activity will accelerate through the spring and summer.  We don’t anticipate rising prices, we do anticipate properties selling faster.

To become a successful seller in this market requires smart strategy and an All-In mentality.  Better-than-your-competition marketing/positioning, through staging, interior and exterior merchandising shine and  polish and attractive pricing position, are all required.

Buyers: Selection remains excellent, but inventory is shrinking.  Mortgage rates and monthly payments remain beautifully low.  Motivated Sellers are eager to hear from you. It’s a safe and smart time to make your move. Competition among buyers will elevate as we enter spring and summer.  If you’re considering a move, the sooner the better.
