September 2018 Home Sales for Fairfield, Alabama

September 2018 Home Sales for Fairfield, Alabama

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE BIRMINGHAM MLS GIVES AGENTS UNTIL THE 5TH OF THE MONTH TO POST THE PREVIOUS MONTH'S SALES SO THIS NUMBER MAY INCREASE.

Fairfield home sales have been pretty consistent these past few months and that's a good sign. Any time that there is steady sales activity in a community, that is a positive.  The reason why is that regular sales activity keeps home values on the move. The more sales, the more likely prices have a tendency to inch up.  By contrast, older communities with little to no homes sales are harder to determine market value because of the lack of recent sales data and it's the data that helps agents and appraisers assess market value for you.

Actual Home Sales

As you can see, there were six homes sold in Fairfield during the month of September 2018 and while six (6) may not look like a great number, there is more to the story.  This number (6) is further enhanced by the currently pending and contingent sales listed below. 

 Pending & Contingent Sales as of September 30, 2018

When you take into account the number of pending and contingent sales as of September 30, 2018, you have just added 7 more potential homeowners that want to live or invest in your community.  And that deserves a high five all day long. Notice that I said, potential homeowners.  Not every contract results in a closing (but that's whole other post for later). 

For right now, I'll just say get ready to welcome your new neighbors. For those of you that have just purchased a home in Fairfield, you can expect to get a welcome letter from the City of Fairfield City Council President, Eddie Penny on behalf of the Fairfield City Council.  You'll find some helpful info in that letter such as the new homeowner's council district and the council person’s name, link to change voting location Information, garbage fee and number to get pickup started. schools and local shopping and, eateries.

Well until my next post, if you have any questions, please feel free to fill out the contact form on the right and I'll get back to you just as soon as I can (which is usually within a few minutes when possible).  In the meantime, if you want to know what your home is worth, just let me know and I'll prepare a no-cost market analysis just for you.
