Ann Arbor Real Estate Report – January 2019

More Inventory but Less Sales for Ann Arbor HomesAnn Arbor Home Inventory is Rising

Ann Arbor homes are starting off this new year strong with 67 homes being entered into the multiple listings service, this is an increase of 21% compared to the 55 last year.  A total of 39 homes were sold, which is a significant 29% decrease compared to the 55 sold homes last January. Considering only the listings that were entered in January, not inclusive of those that have been on the market longer, 70% of the 67 homes were sold. Unfortunately for sellers, the average days on the market is 45, meaning that many homes entered last month have not yet sold; this is an 11.8% increase from 2017 though. Luckily for buyers, both listing and selling prices declined compared to the prior January. The average listing price dropped from $494,222 to $446,662, a 9.6% difference. There was less of a difference between the average selling price this year and last, $421,420 versus $450,822, only a 6.5% decline.

Here is your final real estate report for 2018 for Ann Arbor homes! Both this past month’s prices and year-to-date prices have increased.

There is minimal increase in the average listing price last month, from $451,784 to $452,492 now. A total of 57 homes have been sold in December, and although this is a 17.4% decrease from December 2017; it is good for sellers because more homes were sold than listed (in December) meaning that some homes that were entered into the multiple listings service before December were able to be sold. The average sale price is $436,533 versus $417,239 in December 2017, which is a 4.6% increase. Luckily for sellers, there has been a decrease in the average days on the market, from 56 to 45 days, a 19.6% difference. Continue reading
