What are the key takeaways?
- Inventory continues to drop as homes being sold and going under contract are not being replaced by homes newly placed on the market. Combine that with some sellers taking their home off the market for the holiday season and you get slimmer choice if you’re looking to buy.
- Actual quantity of homes sold actually went UP when compared to November.
- Time on market remained relatively the same and prices are in the same general area without any large moves.
- Distressed (short sales and foreclosures) continue to be a fairly small segment of Warren County homes for sale, and their involvement in the market continues to be minimal. The 928 homes for sale include 34 foreclosed homes and 28 short sales. Of the 197 homes sold in November, 19 were foreclosures and 3 were short sales.
