Collin County Housing Market Stats – December 2022
Kelli Clark
Jan 8, 2023
This month’s market stats are from Dec 2021-Dec 2022 so we can see the big picture of what the year looked like. I know I have had a lot of sellers concerned about depreciation over the last several months after seeing the shift in the market. The good news is that year over year we still saw a median percentage increase of 6.5%. One thing to note here is if you notice from Jan-May we saw a big jump in sales price. It hit it’s peak in May when the rise in interest rates and sales price greatly affected home affordability. We then started to see a deceleration in the market. But, if you notice in Dec, we start to see it leveling off. This is suggesting that we indeed are just seeing a price correction and that may be a sign that prices will not dip too much more. We will be watching this over the next couple months to see what happens!
Yes the days on market have increased but 7 days was not normal. We are now closer back to what a balanced market looks like for the days on market. Though I have still been seeing homes sell in less than that if they are priced right!
The amount of inventory is the big story here as we are finally catching up. We are still under what we were prior to COVID but it’s nice to see more homes for sale. But what that also means is as a seller, there is more competition. You definitely need to be more strategic to avoid having your home sit on the market for a long time.
For those trying to time the market, keep in mind that when interest rates go down, prices will go back up. There are a lot of buyers on the sidelines right now just waiting for that “perfect” window to jump back in. If you find a home you love, don’t wait. There are many opportunities out there that have not been available the past couple of years, such as seller concessions and builder incentives to help buy down the interest rate!
