However, every market ebbs and flows, and 2023 was a testament to this natural cycle. While the market didn't soar as it has in some previous years, it's important to note that what we experienced was a slight plateau rather than a downturn. Depending on the specific areas within the county, some sectors saw a flat year while others experienced minor dips.
As we turn the page to 2024, the initial statistics suggest we're off to a robust start. January's numbers are in, and they paint an optimistic picture for the year ahead. When compared with January 2023, sales are up by 20%, and with a 28% increase in inventory, there's more for potential buyers to choose from. Properties aren't lingering on the market for long either, with the average days on market sitting at a brisk 59 days.
