Harrisbug, NC Market Update Decemeber 2009

By
Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX Signature Properties

2009, what a wild ride, huh?  Everyone has heard about the real estate market.  I know because I get puppy dog eyes from people who know I am still in real estate, "Hey Virginia, are things getting better yet?"  "How is business?" "Oh, you're still in real estate?"  Bless you all.  I appreciate the pity but the good news is that people really are still buying and selling real estate.  And I intend on helping many of those folks!

Back to THAT market.  Let's talk about where I call home, Harrisburg, NC

 

  • Currently there are 136 homes active on the market
  • They have been active for an average of 166 days
  • They have an average list price of $317,657
Sounds good so far.  What about the homes that have sold?
  • 87 homes have sold in the past 6 months
  • They had an average of 130 days on market
  • They sold for an average of $237,157, at 94.5% of list price
Let's look at the past 30 days.
  • 9 properties have closed 
  • They were listed an average of 102 days
  • They sold at an average sale price of $214,529, at 96.6% of list price
With interest rates at the lowest they have been in years and home prices at their most competitive levels, this is a phenomenal time to invest in Harrisburg. Especially with the Home Buyer Tax Credit of $6500 to 8000.  Let me show you why Harrisburg is a great place to call home.

If you are thinking about selling and are concerned about your property's value call me.  It may or may not be your best time to sell. I am happy to discuss your options with you.
