Homes took an average of 44 days to sell and closed at approximately 98% of the asking price, suggesting that buyers may have more time to evaluate properties while sellers need to price carefully.<\/p>\n<p>Year-over-year sales declined 10.3%, while inventory increased 16.7%. This shift gives buyers more choice and may create additional negotiating opportunities, particularly for homes that are overpriced, require updates, or have been on the market longer than average.<\/p>\n<p>For sellers, accurate pricing, strong presentation, and a focused marketing plan are essential. For buyers, the expanded selection creates room to compare homes, complete due diligence, and structure an offer strategically rather than rushing into a decision.<\/p>\n<p>Data on above-list sales and listings that sold within two weeks was not provided, so those indicators should not be assumed.
