Fall 2017
August/ September 2017 brought a slight cooling to our local real estate markets, typical activity for this time of year, as family focus changed from vacationing to back to school. From key metrics reporting provided by Charlotte Regional Realtor* Association:
Closings were down 3.8% in August and down 3.9% in September year over year, but they are still up 6.1% year over year in 2017. Median sales prices were up 9.2% and inventory was down -17.5%. With inventory down, interest rates and tax policy unchanged, Buyers and Sellers can expect more price acceleration in 2018.
