What Does This Mean For Buyers?
Buyers who are looking for properties in the Outer Banks can expect to see slightly more inventory, while inventory is down compared to last year, inventory levels have been increasing month to month since the beginning of the year. Now is a good time to look for a home to buy as the market is not as competitive at this time of year. Buyers who are searching for a home to buy should have financing in place and be ready to act as soon as a property is found.
What Does This Mean For Sellers?
Sellers of homes are enjoying favorable market conditions. Homes are in demand and prices are climbing higher. While we can expect a sellers-market through the summer, as interest rates and inflation concerns grow, a slow-down in the real estate market is expected. Sellers should take the opportunity to get their home listed in sold while market conditions are favoring sellers.
