Is the local real estate market crashing? 📉 Let’s talk facts, not rumors. 🛑📊
If you’ve been scrolling through real estate headlines lately, you’re probably hearing a lot about longer days on market, price reductions, and rising inventory. It’s easy to look at those trends and assume the market is taking a dive. But when you actually break down the numbers across SCV and SFV, the real story is much more nuanced.
Let’s look at the current SCV market stats:
📊 ~750 Active Listings
💸 ~230 May Closings
⏳ ~3.3 Months of Inventory
📈 ~99% Average Sale-to-List Price Ratio
What does this actually mean?
Historically, anything under 3 months of inventory is a strict seller's market, and anything over 6 months is a buyer's market. Sitting right at 3.3 months means this market isn’t dead—it’s balanced. ⚖️
Sellers are still netting an average of 99% of their list price. The market has simply become much more selective.
The homes that are priced right, presented beautifully, and positioned correctly are still moving quickly. On the flip side, homes that miss the mark are sitting longer and forcing price reductions later. In a balanced market, your strategy matters more than ever.
