The real estate market for Single Family Homes in Cumberland County experienced dynamic shifts in September.
The notable 17.2% surge in the average sales price of single-family homes from the previous year, reaching $580,000, is indicative of strong demand and robust price growth. However, this came alongside a considerable 27.1% decrease in the number of homes sold compared to the same month the previous year, signifying a slowdown in sales activity.
Homes continued to sell swiftly, with a median time of just 6 days on the market, although it marked a 14.3% decrease from the same period the previous year.
The list-to-sale price ratio remained competitive, reaching 103.3%, reflecting a slight increase from the previous year and a small decrease from the previous month.
Moreover, the significant 41.1% increase in the month's supply of inventory suggests that buyers have more housing options in the region, potentially contributing to the slower sales rate.
