Mecklenburg County, NC Real Estate Report: 

Quarter 1 - 2022

 

Latest news on the Mecklenburg County real estate market and what it means for you...

 

First Quarter 2022 Mecklenburg County, North Carolina home sales kept the County a seller's market with just 0.4 months of inventory. Mecklenburg County includes the seven cities and towns of Charlotte, Pineville, Matthews, Mint Hill, Davidson, Huntersville, Cornelius.

 

During the first quarter of 2022, Mecklenburg County saw both inventory and months supply of homes decrease substantially compared with the first quarter of 2021.  Both median and average sale prices increased 19.5% and 14.2%, respectively, during the first quarter of 2022 compared with the same time period in 2021. These price increases can be attributed to the razor-thin inventory. Days on market were 21 -- down 23% versus the same period one year ago. Mecklenburg County homes continued to sell quickly and closed sales in the first quarter of 2022 were down 7% compared to the same quarter one year ago.

It is such a hot market that even the junk is selling quickly. I keep wondering when the market will change a bit.

Razor-thin inventory in Mecklenburg County tells the story of how much inventory is needed. Hope this message will bring sellers in the area your way!

Hi Nina- No inventory=lower sales. Stands to reason. I wonder what those who are buying the "junk" will think over the years.

Lawrence "Larry" & Sheila Agranoff. Cell: 631-805-4400 hi Sheila... hard to fathom that there were less than 1,000 homes for sale in a county with over one million population.

I just hope that inventory doesn’t explode because of inflation or a unexpected market crash. We can rest assured you have weathered many storms and will be here for your clients. Happy Sunday Nina 🙂

Sheri Sperry - MCNE® good morning, Sheri... when you think about fewer than 1,000 active listing in a county with over 1 million in population, it's truly mind-boggling.

Paul S. Henderson, REALTOR®, CRS good morning, Paul... for now I'm not seeing any trend towards inventory increasing or market explosions... too many people moving to Charlotte area from places where they made a ton of money on the sale of their homes. And now, they have no where to spend that money.

Endre Barath, Jr. good morning and thanks, Endre. I'm all about my kitchens... and it's the first room I planned when I've built my own homes and the first I've renovated when I purchased a resale.
