Homes in Nashville are typically selling in about 60 days right now. This means a house generally takes two months from when it's listed to when it goes under contract. Most homes are spending about this much time on the market. This is a very slight increase from the same time last year.The number of homes for sale in Nashville has increased significantly. There are now 12,197 active listings, which is 12.6% more than there were a year ago. Even with more new listings coming on the market (4,040 in the most recent month), homes are taking a little longer to sell. If you are selling a home, understand that buyers have more options now than they did last year, and your home might sit for a couple of months. If you are buying, you might find that you have a bit more time to make a decision.

There are 60 days on average from the time a home is listed until it goes under contract in the Nashville area right now. This means it takes about two months for homes to find a buyer. This is a tiny bit longer than over the past year, up 1.7%. That change is not very noticeable.
Right now, there are 12,197 homes actively for sale. This is 12.6% more homes on the market compared to the same time last year. This increase in available homes might contribute to the slightly longer time it takes to sell.
Around 22.0% of homes on the market have had their price reduced. This means nearly a quarter of sellers have lowered their asking price to attract a buyer, which can be a strategy to sell more quickly. This share of price reductions is up slightly by 0.8% over the past year.
The number of homes going under contract compared to active listings, called the pending ratio, is 0.38. This is a drop of 5.0% compared to last year, suggesting fewer homes are going off the market as quickly as they once were.
If you're selling in Nashville, be prepared for your home to be on the market for about two months, and be open to adjusting your price if needed to attract a buyer.
