The February home report from the Alabama Center for Real Estate (ACRE) was released last week. The analysis always offers interesting insights into our local market, and we wanted to share some of that with you! Our key takeaway? Our market is HOT!

Median home prices are still increasing and sales volume is increasing as well. What does that mean for you? It’s a great time to buy OR sell. We currently have about 4.5 months supply, which is 1.5 months below a neutral market. Sellers are keeping that elevated bargaining power for now! Something else to note: the average days on the market is 40% below the 5 year average.

Our demand for homes is still exceeding our supply, which is probably what is keeping our days on the market so low. There is competition for fewer properties and that is driving our home prices up. At the end of the day, economics is always about supply and demand!
