It's been a whiplash kind of month here at SCCL, as the number of ACTIVE listings continue to change almost daily... sometimes several times a day. October ended with 15 ACTIVE Single Family Residence (SFR) listings and dropped down to 14, 13, and then only 9 on November 10, with 7 UNDER CONTRACT. On November 15th, there were 11 ACTIVE SFR listings, with 11 UNDER CONTRACT for the month. November 17th there were 11 ACTIVE, 13 UNDER CONTRACT, and 13 CLOSED SFR listings. Carriage Homes and Villas (CHV) showed more than usual activity, also. While there were 5 ACTIVE CHV listings at the end of October, on November 17th, ACTIVE listings were down to two.
The holiday season is quickly approaching, with Thanksgiving only a week away. Will sales slow down during the holidays? No one can say for sure, but, last year 9 SFRs and 2 CHVs went UNDER CONTRACT in December. Typically, folks who look at homes during the holiday season are serious about purchasing. Many times out-of-town house guests are so impressed with Sun City Carolina Lakes that they decide to move here. This year, with the limitations we face due to the COVID pandemic, that might not happen this year... but, it certainly hasn't slowed activity down over recent months, so who knows? This might just be a very active holiday season.
If you're thinking about selling or moving, or have friends or family that are contemplating a move, please contact me. I'd love to discuss your plans and your options with you. As many who decide to move have said, "If not now, when?"
