What Happened In Charlotte Region's Housing Market In Quarter 2, 2019?

Charlotte, NC Region Housing Market Update: 

2nd Quarter 2019

 

Second Quarter 2019 Charlotte, North Carolina region's home sales continued the trends we've seen since 2015. Home buyers are still finding the housing market very competitive with higher home prices and a lack of properties to buy, especially in affordable homes. Buyers looking for a bargain are "hard pressed" to find one. 

Meantime, home sellers continue to sell their homes relatively quickly and for top dollar, when priced right for condition and location. The "story" of the second quarter 2019 might well be about the continued decreases in the supply of homes available for sale across the region with a resulting increase in home prices in  the region and minimal increase in closed sales.  It's worth pointing out that this "story" is now an "old" story, because that was also the story of 2016, 2017, and 2018. And with inventory at 2.3 months, Charlotte region remained a seller's market in the second quarter of 2019.

 

 

 

 

In the second quarter of 2019, the Charlotte region saw a:

  • 4.7% increase in average sale prices (to $312,328) year-over-year.
  • 14% decrease in inventory of homes for sale year-over-year.
  • 1.4% increase in closed sales year over year.
  • 15.1% decrease in the months supply of homes (2.3 months supply) year-over-year.
  • Days on market year-over-year were 43 (down 9 days versus the first quarter 2019).
  • 97.2% of original price received, indicating a small window of opportunity for buyers to negotiate on price.

Looking at the chart, that is some increase in value in the last three years.

James Dray good morning, James... that it is... and that's why so many potential buyers are getting priced out of the market here right now.

Ron and Alexandra Seigel hi Alexandra... well, I was rooting for the other guy... have been a fan of Djokovich since he first came on the scene. Not that I have anything against Federer... but Djokovich has been a favorite of mine for a long time.

Hi Nina Hollander I hope all is well with you. In reading through the comments, I just had to ask "Who is Hoyt?"

Bill Roberts hey there, Bill... nice to see your smiling face! And hope all is well at your end. Hoyt is my former partner in NYC when I was with Halstead Property. Margaret Rome asked for a referral to a top Manhattan broker... and I put her together with my old friend and partner, Hoyt Spelman.
