Analyzing the Numbers

Graph Number One: Active Residential Listings vs. Number of Sales

Let’s start by looking at a 5-year look back at active residential listings and the number of sales. Last month, March of ’24 listings rose to 1,832, up from the month before when it was 1,880. However, that’s still down from a year ago in March of ’23 when we had 1,930 listings. The number of sales rose to 1,133, up from the month before when we had only 856 sales.

Market Trends

Graph Number Two: Median Sale Price and Days to Sell

The median sale price rose last month to $190,000, up from February when it was $179,900. This is up from a year ago in March of last year when $180,000 was the median price. The median days to sell dipped to 24 last March, down from the month before when it was 31.

Predictions for the Future

In general, the market has slowed down a bit, but it’s still pretty normal for our cyclical market. With fewer listings and sales in the winter and more in the spring, summer, and fall, we expect the inventory shortage to continue. I predict the rest of the year will see a rise in the median sale price to well over $200,000, and days to sell will continue to drop.
