Just how low is Charlotte region's housing inventory? While inventory has increased somewhat compared with the first quarter of 2022, as of May 2022, the Charlotte region had 3,788 active property listings, down 12.3% from one year ago. The months supply of homes stood at just 0.8 months in May 2022, down from 0.9 months in May 2021. With less than one month of inventory, a housing market is a home seller's market.

Need another reason to sell your Charlotte Region home this summer?
After two years of record-setting activity we are seeing signs of a market correction. High home prices and a surge in mortgage rates are slowing buyer activity under the weight of soaring homeownership costs. (Charlotte region's home affordability index was down 22.8% year-over-year in May 2022.)
Economists predict that if sales continue to soften in the near future, we might see some downward pressure on home 
prices. In the Charlotte region, as of May 2022 demand continued to increase relative to supply... but it remains to be seen how long that continues. At least for the foreseeable future, Charlotte region home sellers can expect home inventory to remain low and home prices to increase, albeit at a slower pace than what we've seen in the past two years.
This means... you still have an opportunity to get great terms for your house when you sell this summer. That’s because there are still more buyers who want purchase than there are homes for sale. And that means prices are likely to continue appreciating, just at a more moderate pace. Reach out to me at 704-779-0813 if you’re ready to list in today’s sellers’ market.
