Are you thinking of selling your home?

The national inventory of homes has fallen to a four month supply, making it a sellers’ market in many areas of the United States. As a result of this low supply, homes are on the market for fewer days and bidding wars have broken out among buyers.

This month’s information includes relevant facts and statistics about the current housing market. While page one provides an overview of the market, including the factors that make this an ideal time to sell, page two paints a portrait of the average seller and includes information about the home they sold.
