So what are the key takeaways from this month's numbers?
- Those shifts up in price? Almost a mirror image of the drops the month prior! Obviously some swings in mix from bargain shopping to spending a bit more money!
- Overall sales for February? The best February from 2010 to present. Not bad for a short month!
- The number of homes under contract went up by 1, and total homes for sale increased slightly. Still, we're not that far from half of the homes on the market being under contract. Take into account that 24 of the 69 homes for sale are new construction and you can see inventory is pretty tight.
- Prices of homes sold had no homes below $100,000 and 7 above $300,000.
- New construction sales only accounted for 2 of the 31 sales.
- Time to sell is decreased to under 6 weeks.
- Distressed properties continue to be a very small segment of the market. None of the 31 sales was a foreclosure, and of the 69 homes on market 3 are bank owned and one is a short sale.
So what does this mean to you as a Lebanon single family home owner?
No change from past months other than expect things to start picking up speed as we get closer to Spring. If a buyer MUST buy, the relatively low inventory works to your advantage. That doesn't mean a home that is in poor condition or not priced right will still sell.
Give us a call and we can meet and determine what is best for your personal circumstances.
You're not going up against significant new construction in MOST communities, but places like Shaker Run and Trails of Shaker Run new construction do challenge your ability to sell.
And if you're not quite ready to enter the market, it's the PERFECT time to meet with us and get your To Do list ready to have your home optimally ready for when you ARE ready to sell your home!

So what does this mean to you as a potential Lebanon home buyer?
No change here either. Watch for new homes for sale that fit your needs, but you STILL need to ACT quickly despite the longer time on market for most sellers.
The selection of foreclosed/short sale homes is minimal to nonexistent, so don't count on finding one to buy, much less one in good condition.
