How to Read a Real Estate Market Update
Each market update focuses on four key indicators that shape real-world buying and selling decisions:
- Homes Sold - Shows buyer demand and market confidence.
- New Listings - Reveals seller activity and inventory pressure.
- Average Sale Price - Helps identify price trends — while accounting for anomalies in smaller or rural markets.
- Days on Market - Indicates how quickly homes are selling and how much negotiating room buyers may have.
We always look at monthly results alongside full-year trends, because a single month rarely tells the whole story — especially in seasonal or rural markets.
