The Ann Arbor housing market is less competitive right now. You're seeing more homes available and they are staying on the market longer, which can give buyers more options. Right now, the typical home is listed for $454,250. That's a bit lower than last month, down 2.3%, and even more so compared to a year ago, down 6.1%. There are more homes to choose from, with 927 active listings. This is a noticeable increase of 25.1% compared to a year ago. Homes are also taking longer to sell, sitting on the market for a median of 48 days, which is 14.5% longer than last year. About one in five homes, or 21.4% of them, have had their price reduced. This is a slightly higher percentage than a year ago, up 4.7%, suggesting sellers are adjusting their expectations. For anyone looking to buy or sell, these numbers mean there's more room to negotiate and less pressure for buyers, while sellers might need to price more strategically.
