🔎 What Does This Mean?

The August numbers show a market where home prices continue to rise while available inventory and the amount of time homes spend on the market have declined.

For sellers, the 4.0% increase in average sales price and 97.7% of original list price received are encouraging indicators. For buyers, the lower inventory and 2.6 months of supply mean competition can still exist for well-priced homes that stand out.

At the same time, the decline in closed and pending sales shows that buyers are continuing to be selective.
