Latest news on the Fort Mill, SC real estate market in August 2021 and what it means for you...  

 

Fort Mill's housing market (29715 and 29708 zip codes) remained a seller's market in August with significantly lower inventory, lower months supply of housing, fewer days on market, and higher average and median home sale prices. With homes selling in just nine days on average, buyers need to act fast! It's going, going, gone in Fort Mill, South Carolina.

 

Pending sales decreased 16.5%. Closed sales dropped 6.2% year-over-year in August. Lack of inventory limited the number of pending and closed sales in August.

 

New listings decreased 12.5% in Fort Mill year-over-year. Housing inventory dropped 45.2% year-over-year. The months supply of homes decreased 50.0% to 0.8 months from 1.6 months in the same month one year ago and from 2.3 months in the same month two years ago. Clearly, Fort Mill has been a seller's market for at least five years now.

 

Average days on market decreased 25 days to 9 days versus the same month one year ago.  Median days on market were 3, decreasing 5 days versus the same month one year ago and decreasing 25 days versus August 2019. Newly listed homes continue to sell as fast as they come on the market.

 

Pent-up demand for Fort Mill homes was also evident in the number of average showings per listing in August 2021. On average, listed homes had 13.7 showings, up 25.7% from 10.9 showings in August 2020. In August 2019 listed homes had an average of 8.4 showings. It's a matter of more buyers "chasing" after fewer homes.

 

Sellers received a median 102.1% of list price, up 3.5% year-over-year. Home buyers had minimal negotiating room for Fort Mill homes.

 

Average home sale prices increased 25.8% in August 2021 versus August 2020.  Median home sale prices increased 121.7%. Average sale price was $484,600 (almost $30,000 higher than in July 2021). Average home prices have increased about $128,000 in the two years since August 2019. Median sale price was $415,000. Median home sale prices have increased about $94,000 in the two years since August 2019. Greater demand for homes than supply of homes continues to drive home prices up. Price per square foot increased to $186, up $37/square foot one, year-over-year.

Patricia Feager, MBA, CRS, GRI,MRP thanks, Patricia... it's been a very busy year from a work perspective, but also difficult in terms of health challenges, both for my husband and for me. Just taking it one day at a time.

Nina Hollander, Broker - I understand. I'd like to think that with every challenge we encounter and whatever comes our way, we gain deeper perspective, true maturity, and fuller knowledge about what really matters when it comes to family.

Nina, good to get these valuable market reports out, as we are nearing the end of the month.   I missed so many while on vacation, behind the 8 ball now.

Hi Nina Hollander, Broker  - Hot markets like this one make the buyer and agent work so much harder to find that right home.  Your buyers are lucky to have an expert like you at their side.

Hi Nina:

There are clearly plenty of challenges for buyers in the Fort Mill housing market. 9 day average DOM is pretty quick...buyer need to be prepared to make quick decisions on touring homes and making offers!

Hi Doll, I just wanted to say that I hope you had a great weekend. We had fantastic weather with clear skys, very light winds, and the low 80's as a temp. If I couldn't say it's a perfect day I'd have to say it was a Nina Hollander, Broker day.

Jeff Dowler, CRS good morning, Jeff. I keep telling people who want to "sleep on it," that if they sleep on it, they probably won't sleep in it.

Bob "RealMan" Timm good Monday morning, Bob. Thanks for the nice message. I can't believe your temperatures were warmer than ours... although we did have gorgeous weather the last several days... no humidity, blue skies, and temperatures in the mi-d70's.

If someone wants a home in Fort Mill they better be prepared to act quickly since they aren't staying on the market long at all.

Brian England hi again, Brian... with sales moving this quickly, buyers barely have a chance to even get into a house to see it, much less make an offer.
