Those folks who have been waiting for summer to sell are now putting their homes on the market now and its causing the market to become saturated with homes. The thought process that waiting to sell a home during the summer months, is NOT helping sellers. However, THIS IS GREAT NEWS FOR BUYERS! This thought process is what is causing the number of days on market to increase. The Average number of days on the market has increased 12 days in the last 4 months. That may not seem like a lot, but remember thats the AVERAGE. It tells us its taking longer to sell homes across the board.
If youve been waiting to buy, NOW is a GREAT time to get out there and get your new home. Youve got more choices and time to decide to make your offer. The below is the May 2015 market absorption rate of Paulding County homes priced between $100,000 to $125,000.
