If you’re wondering what’s happening in the Saint John housing market right now, here’s a quick snapshot.
94 homes sold in February. That’s about 27% fewer sales than the same time last year. Buyers are taking a little more time to make decisions compared to the frenzy we saw a few years ago.
At the same time, more homes are coming to market. There were 161 new listings in February and 438 active homes available. Inventory is slowly increasing, giving buyers a bit more choice.
Prices are holding steady. The average home price in February was about $352,795, while the median price was $342,500. The median
price is actually up about 3.8% compared to last year.
Homes are still selling quickly.The median time on the market was about 28 days, and homes are selling on average for about 102% of their list price, meaning many properties are still getting strong offers.
Right now the market is sitting in what we call a balanced range, with about 4.7 months of inventory. That means it’s not as competitive as the peak years, but well-priced homes are still moving.
What does this mean?
For sellers: Pricing strategy and presentation matter more than ever. The right home, priced correctly, is still attracting buyers.
For buyers: There’s a little less competition than before and slightly more inventory to choose from, but desirable homes still sell quickly.
If you’re curious what your home might be worth in today’s market, I’m always happy to provide a free, no obligation home evaluation.
