Let’s take a look at recent median price and days on market trends for the greater Reno-Sparks area.
By January 31, 2016, the median price for the Reno-Sparks region was $277,000, which is a slight decrease compared to the upward trend seen throughout 2015. Despite the decrease, the Reno/Sparks area is still looking at record highs for median price dating back to 2011. November 2015 was a record $292,000, so the market is still opportune for sellers.
The average Days on Market seemed to temporarily level out, marking 105 days on market for January 2016 compared to 104 days on market for December 2015. Outside an average days on market value of 97 in November, the market has hovered above 100 dating back to October 2015. It is typical for Days on Market to increase this time of year, but with the continued low housing inventory and high demand, we expect the average to go down as soon as we get into the early spring buying months.
Why should this information matter to you? For any sellers who have equity as a result of the increase in property values, the low inventory and high demand make this a great time to talk to a Dickson agent about how to sell now and for the best price in many years.
