Again, what a difference a week makes! This week had much more activity than last week.

Inventory is now under 40 properties.
Of the 39 active listings, over half, (20) are listed over $500,000.
Three listings are over $1,000,000.
Only 6 listings under $400,000

Prices are not increasing as fast as the last several years. Sellers don’t want to miss potential buyers and deal with increased competition.

A shift is on its way. Sellers should really evaluate their position in the market in order to realize a sale quickly. Prices remain strong. Interest rates are low. A Buyer’s market is waiting in the wings!
