BETWEEN THE NUMBERS/ OUR READ ON THE MARKET
With active listings at 96 for Hidden Valley and 94 for
Seven Springs inventory continues to set record highs. The stats we watch
indicate this trend will continue at least through next year. Prices are
becoming more competitive and will be contracting further as inventory rises.
The drop in the average sales prices for properties transferred through the
third quarter of this year compared to years gone by is proof of the market
changes.
We urge you to take advantage NOW of the great selection of
properties available at both resorts! Yes, inventory may continue to grow but
inflation is on the horizon!! With inflation will come higher interest rates. Get the most bang for your buck TODAY
and enjoy the winter festivities!!
There’s a ton of good, bad,
and outdated information to be found on the Internet. Interpreting the
information is critical when giving guidance to buyers and sellers. Make sure you are in a designated
relationship with your REALTOR.
