Good morning Nina,

I can see with inventory so low buyers are having a tough time finding a home in Fort Mill. The list to sell ration is excellent but I can see why sales are down..nothing to purchase!

Hi Nina,

It appears that buyers may have a competitive edge when purchasing in Fort Mill, SC.

Of course, markets are changing from one month to the next month.

Sheri Sperry - MCNE® hi Sheri... to some degree I don't care what the number seem to say on paper... what I know is I can't find homes for my Fort Mill buyers and when a good one comes along it's multiple offers and bidding wars. (Same in south Charlotte, in Waxhaw, etc.)  And with a list to sale price ratio of almost 99.5% there's not much negotiating leverage for buyers.

Hi Nina- even though the market is making some shifts, it is still a good market.  Sellers who are even thinking of selling should contact you.

Nina Hollander, Broker  this could be my market report too, just change the names and the price points but the result is the same, buyers are having a tough time finding a new home and the list goes on and on, Endre

Endre Barath, Jr. good morning, Endre... lots of parallels with so many markets around the country. All that differs is the price point.
