Market Update

Summary: The housing market is in a completely different state than it was this time last year, with steady price increases, more solid inventory, and strong demand.

Details:  Median age of inventory is 94 days. This is a leading indicator of demand and has declined by 11.32 percent from last year. In Columbus in particular, inventory is scarce, with a median age of inventory of 78 days—less than three months! Home prices, on the other hand, have risen. Nationally, the median list price increased by 7.57% year-over–year. The median list price for homes in Columbus, Ohio is $148,500. –a smaller increase of 2.77%. Overall, the market did not experience the seasonal slowdown typical of the fall months, leaving buyers, sellers, and Real Estate agents working full steam ahead.
