It looks like fewer buyers are making offers in Appleton right now compared to last year. Only 38 homes went under contract in the most recent month, and that activity is down quite a bit from last year. The number of homes for sale has more than doubled, with 694 active listings right now. This gives buyers many more choices than they had a year ago. Even though there are more choices, sellers aren't dropping prices much yet. The typical home price is still near $400,000, and it hasn't changed from last month. Only about 11% of homes have had a price reduction. Homes are also selling at about the same speed as last year, with the typical home staying on the market for 34 days. If you're buying in Appleton, you have more homes to choose from, but don't expect big price drops yet.
