What This Means for Buyers
A 100% sale-to-list ratio and about 40 days on market suggest a more balanced environment than a fast-moving seller’s market. Buyers still need to be prepared, especially on well-priced homes, but there is more time to compare options than in periods when homes sold in just a couple of weeks.
What This Means for Sellers
Homes are still selling at list price on average, which is a healthy sign. Pricing and presentation remain important. With roughly 40 days on market, homes that are priced correctly and show well have a good chance of attracting serious buyers without sitting for months.
