Should I Sell My House This Year?
As you can see, many believe that, despite everything going on in the world, it is still a good time to sell a home. According to NAR, the unsold inventory available today “sits at a 3.0-month supply at the current sales pace,” which is down from a 3.7-month supply in November. The current inventory is half of what we need for a normal or neutral housing market, which should have a 6.0-month supply of unsold inventory.
This is good news for sellers, as Lawrence Yun, Chief Economist at NAR, says:
“Home sellers are positioned well, but prospective
buyers aren’t as fortunate. Low inventory remains a problem, with first-time buyers affected the most.”
