The Anniston-Oxford housing market is showing some cooling, with prices dropping a bit compared to last year. While there are fewer homes for sale overall, the number of new homes coming on the market is slightly up.
The median listing price right now is $221,800. This is a small increase of 2.0% from the prior month, but it's actually 1.8% less than what homes were listed for at this time last year. This suggests prices are not growing as fast as they were.
There are 255 active listings, which is 9.3% fewer homes than last year. However, 128 new listings came on the market recently, a small increase of 1.6% from the past year. This could mean more choices are slowly becoming available.
Houses are staying on the market for 60 days on average. This is a bit longer than last year, when homes sold slightly faster. Also, 14.0% of homes have had their prices reduced, which is less common than last year, when more sellers were dropping their prices.
For buyers, this market means you might have a bit more time to look and possibly negotiate. The slight drop in prices year-over-year suggests less urgency, and the increase in new listings means more options might appear over time.
