And The News is Good – The Average Days on Market has dropped for residential sales from 76 to 59 days, a decrease of 22.4 %.  Homes are selling quickly.  Properties are selling faster for more money, many times with multiple offers.  With that said, total dollar volume of all sold inventory is up 17.7 % for the year.  The market is strong and expected to continue through the end of  2012.

But there is one item that needs improvement.  Listing inventory is down 20% from last year at this time.  This is the most opportune time to list your home which has just been validated by all the positive news just mentioned above.  Do not sit back and wonder if your home will sell; find out what your home is worth.

The “Monthly Housing Statistics” published each month by the Ann Arbor Area Board of REALTORS® represent the housing activity of the Multiple Listing Service and not necessarily all the housing activity that has occurred in Washtenaw County. Days on market (DOM) figures are indicated only for that particular current listing. If the property was taken off the market and then re-listed, the count starts over and would not necessarily reflect the total days the property has been available for purchase since it was first made available.
