May 2019 Overview
In the Charlotte market, there continues to be a shortage of home inventory for sale at the lower end of the price spectrum typically defined as homes priced below $200,000. Meanwhile, inventories and sales are rising in the upper price points. The price range with the largest gain in sales was in the $300,000+ range which increased 9.6 percent.
The Median Sales Price is up 5.2% and is currently at $242,000. The property class with the largest price gain was the Condo/Townhome segment with a 10% annual increase to $198,000. The fastest selling price range was the $150,000 to $200,000 range at 25 days and the slowest selling price range was the $300,000+ range at 63 days.
Overall, inventory levels were down 10.1% from this time last year with 2.4 months supply for Single-Family homes and 1.8 months supply for Condos-Townhomes. Note that a balanced market of inventory between buyers and sellers is 6 months. Therefore, current inventory is significantly below this balanced market threshold. This bodes very well for sellers who are considering putting their homes on the market which would be very much in demand from the larger pool of buyers. Sellers of homes with values of $250,000 and below can routinely expect high demand and multiple offers. Sellers of higher-end homes in the best-selling range of $300,000+ can expect brisk activity as well, but the entry-level price range ($250,000 and below) for first-time buyers is most in demand.
