Buyers or Sellers Market? *** Buyers Market ***
HOMES SOLD: 55 –> What it means:
The Market is moving at about the same pace monthly since June of 2024.
AVERAGE SOLD PRICE: $2.87M –> What it means:
Average sold sales prices are up +5-10% (depending on how you splice the data monthly or yearly)… So why does it “seem” like prices are decreasing? Answer: LISTING PRICES are decreasing steadily, leading to prices coming into better alinement with actual sales values… which in turn, should lead to increased sales. At current, we are still seeing Realtors and homeowners overprice listings by 5-10% above market, while some are priced excellently or brought to market looking great and in their best light –> these are the properties that are selling quicker and closer to asking price.
*Note: Propertjes that are newer, renovated, or priced excellently are selling quicker and at higher prices. Properties that “blend in”, have needed repairs, updates, etc. are sitting on the market, being overlooked, and selling for discount as buyers have other options to consider.
NEW CONTRACTS: 48 –> What it means:
Typically, this time of year, we see “pending” contracts (under contract) numbers outpacing “closed” sales. This data point reveals that the market isn’t picking up quite as expected – so sellers should expect to price more aggressively and buyers may have the opportunity to negotiate a little more based on our 5-point negotiation methods.
AVERAGE DAYS TO SALE: 124 –> What it means:
On average, properties coming to market are sitting for 4 months before closing. This number can be manipulated down by pricing in-line with market, making the home stand out with repairs, refreshing, and upgrades, marketing efforts, and negotiations such as inclusions, etc.
