Ann Arbor Real Estate Market Update – April 2017

May 17, 2017Martin Bouma

Ann Arbor Home Inventory Reaches New Low

Inventory for Ann Arbor homes has reached a new Spring low, and is down 4% from this time last year, based on data from the Ann Arbor Area Board of Realtors. This is beginning to affect the number of home sales with 6% less homes closing this April compared with last April. The lack of supply is creating a larger demand and as a result, average sale prices are rising and days on the market are decreasing. The average DOM is 21 compared with 35 and the ASP is up 4.5% at $414,281 vs. $396,224 last April.

With the continued price increases in the Ann Arbor area, your home may be worth a lot more than you think!
