When you are considering listing your home for sale, it’s important to understand the current real estate market and the factors that will inform your overall strategy and pricing.

To get a high level understanding of the Twin Cities market it is useful to see how it breaks down across price ranges and see the trends in each category. Looking at the number of Homes for Sale shows that listings under $250,000 have seen a much steeper decline in inventory than other price brackets, where we are starting to see some gains in available homes for sale.

Another important feature of the Twin Cities real estate market is seasonality — new listings peak in the spring and summer months. This is especially true for homes listed under $500,000, the upper bracket market is less seasonal but does see a slight uptick in listings in the spring. Many people assume the busiest part of the market is the best time to buy, but there can be advantages to searching when the market is quieter too — contact us to discuss all of your options.

Months Supply of Homes for Sale is the measure of how many months it would take for the current inventory of homes on the market to sell, given the current pace of home sales. More than 6 months supply indicates a buyers market, and less than 5 months indicates a market that favors sellers (5-6 is considered balanced). As you can see, the inventory levels vary significantly across price ranges. Experts predict gains in inventory in the under $500,000 category, which should help open up what is now a very tight market.
