End of Year Summary

Over this past year I have shared sales stats that have been quite amazing to follow.  Today, as we begin a new year, I want to share an overview of where we started last January and where we ended up on December 31st.

As you can see, there were 35 ACTIVE Single Family Home listings on January 1, 2020.  When the year ended,  there were only 10 ACTIVE listings.  While showings came to a screeching halt at about mid-March, with only 7 properties going UNDER CONTRACT in April, activity started picking up as restrictions eased up.  By the end of June there were 27 ACTIVE listings.  That number dropped to 16 at the end of July and increased again in August and September, with another drop in October and November, ending with just 10 ACTIVE listings on December 31st.  We saw an all-time low of just 7 ACTIVE listings on December 24th.

Villas and Carriage homes showed similar activity, with 9 ACTIVE listings at the beginning of January and NONE at the end of December.

With the increased number of people moving down from the north, it is likely that we will continue to see lots of activity in 2021.  The low current inventory of homes may have potential buyers waiting for more homes to become available.  If you're thinking about putting your home on the market, this would be a great time to do it! 

You can find the most current information on ACTIVE, UNDER CONTRACT, and CLOSED (SOLD) YTD by clicking this link or using the tab at the top of the page. 

Current stats can be found by clicking HERE and can also be viewed at any time by clicking the STATS tab above.  That link also has interactive charts with the most current stats available through CMLS for specific parameters (through the end of the previous month).

 If you would like to set up a personalized search to follow our SCCL market, please CONTACT ME.  I'd be happy to create an auto-email to bring that information to you daily.
