Overview/Fluctuations ~ June 2023 Market Data:
Summer’s in full swing and homes priced correctly are flying off the shelf (as it were). Time on the Market dropped from 40 days in May to 33 days (47 days in April and 57 days in March). Average & Median Prices in the greater metro area have dropped since last year, and are increasing incrementally each month. Inventory rose from 1.9 months to 2.0 in June. Buyers are out and I hear more people saying they’re waiting till later this month (July) or August to move forward with Listings, so we’ll see how next month’s report looks.
