Addison Real Estate Market – March a bit Sluggish

Addison Real Estate Market

The Addison real estate market is healthy but a bit sluggish for March 2016. Inventory is super tight, market times are up slightly, new listings  and closings are down over this time last year.

Days on Market

The time a home stays on the market in Addison is 137 days which 10% higher than last year when homes were on the market 125 days. Condos and townhomes are on the market 141 days compared to last year at this time when they were at 134 days. Prior to 2014, market times were hugely volatile, but since 2014 around this time, while market times have fluctuated for both property types, they’ve stayed under 150 days.

Months Supply

As of April 1, 2016, there is a 3.1 months supply of single family homes for sale in Addison compared to 3.5 last year.  For condos/townhomes, the supply has decreased drastically from a 5.2 months’ supply last year to a 3.1 months supply as April 1, 2016. Anything under 5 months is definitely a sellers market.

Homes For Sale

As of April 1 2016, there are 83 single family homes for sale in Addison, compare that to the 142 available at this time last year and you’ll see that inventory is super low. Condo and townhome inventory is way down too, with 33 on the market now compared to 140 at the same time last year.  There aren’t enough homes to supply the current buyer demand which provides for a very competitive environment.

New Listings

13 condos/townhomes and 41 single family homes were listed for sale in March of 2016.  Last year at this time 16 condo/townhomes and 49 single family homes were listed.  Less listings in an already tight market isn’t great news for buyers.
