Ah…I am a bit late in posting these stats, my apologies! When the days can all seem the same….my schedule isn’t as rigid! As for the report, can the Waldo market get any tighter for buyers?!?! It is frustrating, having to bid against several other buyers for new listings. Prices continue to rise due to lack of inventory and high demand.
| July 2020 | July 2019 |
| Median list price: $199,950 | $234,000 |
| Median sales price: $214,000 | $241,000 |
| No. of homes sold: 46 | 37 |
| Days on market: 2 | 3 |
As you can see from the days on market number, homes are going under contract within 48 hours of listing. Although the median price is 11% lower than last July, the closed price is way above the list price. Below are the YTD figures:
| Jan-July 2020 | Jan-July 2019 |
| Median list price: $215,000 | $228,450 |
| Median sales price: $225,500 | $228,000 |
| No. of homes sold: 210 | 206 |
| Days on market: 4 | 8 |
Prices are down YTD from 2019, just a bit, it’s still very much a sellers’ market. Buyers need to get into new listings the day they hit the market to take a look, because there are just not homes for sale to meet demand. Currently, there are 11 single family homes for sale in Waldo, with a median list price of $215,000 and 29 days on market.
