Market Trends: A Look at the Numbers
Looking at historical data can help us understand where the market is heading. Here’s a quick comparison of single-family home sales in Crawford County over the past three years:
2022: 728 homes sold | Average Price: $220,000 | Days on Market: 56
2023: 607 homes sold | Average Price: $220,000 | Days on Market: 61
2024 (so far): 711 homes sold | Average Price: $236,000 | Days on Market: 76
So, what does this tell us? While sales dipped in 2023, they rebounded in 2024. The average home price has increased by about $16,000 since 2022, though homes are staying on the market a little longer.
What This Means for Buyers
If you're considering buying a home, prices have been trending upward. A home that cost $220,000 two years ago is now around $236,000. If this pattern continues, waiting another year could mean paying even more.
If you're financially ready, locking in a home now means you start building equity immediately rather than chasing rising prices.
What This Means for Sellers
For sellers, home values have gone up, meaning you can likely sell for more now than in previous years. But should you wait for prices to rise even higher? That’s uncertain. While 2024 shows an increase, there’s no guarantee prices will continue climbing. If selling is on your horizon, now might be a great time to capitalize on current market conditions.
Final Thoughts
The market remains stable in Crawford County, and while it’s difficult to predict the future, the data suggests steady growth. Whether you're looking to buy or sell, understanding these trends can help you make informed decisions.
