What you need to know...

What it means for you...  

 

Fort Mill real estate in October 2022 (29715 and 29708 zip codes) kept home sellers in the driver's seat with the months supply of homes low at 1.6 months, higher home sale prices year-over-year, fewer new listings. By the same token, it's clear the Fort Mill market is softening with days on market increasing, closed and pending sales down year-over-year, less foot traffic through listed homes, and home prices down from the previous month.

Dorie Dillard Austin TX hi Dorie... prices are not accelerating at the same pace as last year, but they are not dropping either. We do see quite a few price reductions, but I think many of those are for listings that were initially priced for last year's market not this year's market.

Thanks for the market update - you keep us so well informed on what is going on in Fort Mill.   I find the foot traffic number fascinating.  Is that from showingtime?

Lise Howe good morning, Lise... the foot traffic comes from SAM (Statistical Analysis Module) which tracks numbers from our MLS. I would assume they come to SAM through Showing Time.
