In this latest report for February 2017, we are continuing to experience an active market with buyers eagerly awaiting listings. There would be many more homes sold if they were on the market. The Sales to Listing price ratio is 98.4% which is down slightly from January’s 98.5%. This indicates homes and condos on average are still very much in demand and selling at close to full price primarily because of the lack of inventory. The median price of active listings is $254,900 while the median price of sold property is $145,000.
Listing Inventory is still WAY down! We have active, qualified buyers in many markets, including the downtown condo market, that are just waiting for listings. If you are thinking of selling your home or condo, now is truly a GREAT time to put it on the market. Please give me a call or fill out the form below and tell us about your home!
Don’t forget that Interest Rates are expected to rise this year to the 5% mark.
