Buyers in Alexandria are quite active right now, with many homes going under contract. The number of homes for sale is down, which means buyers have fewer options. When homes do hit the market, they are moving at a good pace. Around seven of every ten homes listed are pending, or under contract, right now. Fewer homes are available to buy than a year ago. The number of homes for sale is down almost 13% compared to last year. Even fewer new homes are popping up for sale, with a 14% drop from a year ago. Homes are staying on the market for about 41 days, which is pretty much the same as last year. This steady pace shows that homes are still being purchased relatively quickly. Prices are higher than last year, but they have dipped a bit recently. The typical home is listed for around $477,450, which is up 11% compared to a year ago. However, this price dropped about 4% in the most recent month. For buyers, it's important to be ready to act when you find a home you like, given the fewer available options and steady pace of sales.
