In December 2023, our local market showed some interesting trends. While home sales decreased by 23.1% compared to last year (1,126 homes sold), and we saw a 7.6% decrease in the number of available homes (196 fewer listings), the good news is that the median sales price held strong at $400,000.
Even more promising is the recent drop in interest rates. Lower rates help both sellers and buyers. Sellers might be more inclined to list their homes, potentially increasing our housing options. On the flip side, lower rates make it easier for buyers to join the market and pursue their dream homes.
So, if you’ve been thinking about buying or selling, now might be the perfect time to make a move. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need assistance navigating the market. We’re here to help you every step of the way!
