Really, it depends on your specific situation. While prices are slightly down from a year ago, homes are selling faster, which can be good for sellers. The number of homes for sale is also a bit higher than last year.
The median listing price right now is $899,000. This price hasn't changed from the prior month, but it is down 2.5% compared to this time last year. The average listing price is also down 2.1% year-over-year to $1,598,123.
Homes are selling more quickly. The median time a home stays on the market is 56 days, which is almost 12% faster than a year ago. This means homes are finding buyers more quickly once they are listed.
There are 1,247 active listings, which is 3.1% more than last year. The number of new homes coming onto the market is also up slightly at 574, a 2.5% increase year-over-year. This means buyers have more choices than they did a year ago.
About 16.7% of homes have had their prices reduced. However, this is actually a bit lower than last year. Also, 718 homes are currently pending sale, with a pending ratio of 0.58, showing good buyer interest.
If you're thinking of selling, know that homes are moving faster, but you might see a slightly lower price than a year ago. Setting a competitive price from the start could help your home sell quickly.
