The latest data shows that buyers in Baker City are facing fewer choices and homes are selling at lower prices, but homes are also staying on the market longer. Fewer new homes are coming up for sale, which means shoppers have less to pick from.
The number of active listings is 110, which is a small decrease from last year. There are also 26 new listings, a much larger drop compared to last year. This means there aren't as many homes for buyers to choose from right now.
The median listing price is $335,500. This price is 20.0% lower than it was a year ago, which is good news for buyers looking for a deal. Even so, the average listing price is $431,211, also down significantly from last year.
On average, homes are staying on the market for 73 days, which is a bit longer than last year. This could give buyers more time to make decisions. About 21.2% of homes have had their prices lowered, suggesting some sellers are eager to attract buyers.
There are 33 pending listings, meaning those homes are under contract. For you as a buyer, this means there's less competition but also fewer fresh options. You might find a good price, but you'll need to be patient.
