Summer Marketing Trends
Median close price: $615,000. Up 2.24% from last month. Prices are holding.
But here is the real story: median days on market is 14. Average is 38. That gap is the entire market.
Half of homes sell in under two weeks. The other half sit for months. The difference is not luck. It is price.
The Data
Homes priced right — typically 2-3% under comp — generate multiple offers in the first week. The $750k to $999k detached segment is selling in 9 days median. Nine.
Overpriced homes are dragging that average to 38 and counting.
Volume is down. Closings fell 6.97% year-over-year in May. New listings dropped 17.47% from last year. Sellers with 3-4% mortgages are not moving — the math just does not work for them. So inventory looks higher, but it is mostly homes that have been sitting too long.
What this means for you
Selling: Price into the $750-$999k range if you can get there. List under comp. Move fast. The buyers are ready.
Buying: The good homes go in days. You need to be ready before they hit. That means seeing enough homes now to trust your read when it counts. We build that with you.
