“How did it get so late so soon?” 


Thanks to – Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr. Suess)  for this months' subject line quote!

MARKET  UPDATE

NOVEMBER 2021 

 

YEAR CHANGE IN AVERAGE SALES PRICE:  +15.6 %

1 YEAR CHANGE IN # OF HOMES FOR SALE:  - 34.7 %

1 YEAR CHANGE IN # OF CLOSED SALES:  -1.0 %

For those of you that follow the monthly sales highlights that I post here, the only category that shows a really significant change is the in number of closed sales compared to the previous year. Last month the number was -8.4% less and this month it is only 1.0 % less! That's actually a pretty good indicator of how strong the market is, especially considering that there are so many fewer homes available for sale than there were a year ago.

The average sales price continues to increase and that leads me to my (by now familiar) suggestion: 

 

If you have been thinking about selling your Home, now might be the time to act!

Even in the middle of the Holiday Season people who are putting their homes on the market are having great results. If you'd like to take advantage of the current market conditions let me know and I can help!

CONTACT ME and you can tell me what you would like to accomplish when you sell your home. Everyone's situation is different and I never assume that I know what is important to people that I help. We have a conversation and they tell me!

If you want to get a better idea if now might be the right time to sell, you can always take the Seven Question Quiz I created to help you decide:

Thinking of buying a home? Let's have a chat about how to buy a home in the current market. CONTACT ME  to let me know what's important to you (remember, I'll never assume that I already know!) and we can work on your home buying strategy.

Communication is key! When you are ready to Buy or Sell a home,
Let's Talk!

IN CLOSING
