The lowest mortgage rates since early 2023 might keep buyers in the hunt a little longer than usual!
Will they accept the current pricing, or will they insist on grinding lower?
We can get a feel by examining those listings that have been marked pending this month.
The median days-on-market has been running around 14 days for the last few months, and for the 145 NSDCC closed sales in the last 30 days it was 17 days.
There have been 31 NSDCC listings marked pending this month, and their median DOM is 30 days.
There were 12 that went pending in 14 days or less, and six that took more than 60 days.
Did the sellers dump on price to cause a sale? Or were they patient and just waited their turn? Yes, mostly!
Here are those that took 15 days or longer to go pending in September:
It doesn’t look like ANY of those were dying to give it away! Only one lowered more than 5%.
Could they just be lucky? Yes, but luck is not a strategy.
We will come back in a month or two and see their eventual prices at closing!
