YEAR TO DATE
After a surge during the summer months, home prices began to level off in the later part of the year. Still, they are 17% higher than we saw at this point in 2020. Thanks in part to favorable interest rates buyers are not shying away from higher priced homes. Year to date more homes have closed than we saw at this point in both 2019 and 2020 with buyers purchasing 34% more homes in the $1M+ price range as compared to this time last year. Home buyer demand has resulted in low levels of standing inventory because homes that come on the market are moving to the Pending status in an average of just two weeks.
