It's a new year, which means it's time for a new Delaware and Pennsylvania real estate market update! We're looking at 2019's final few months, also known as Q4, and from our last real estate market update, you'll find a few noteworthy changes in the market. 

As you know, the market is always evolving, especially with the seasons, but buyer demand isn't budging in Delaware and Pennsylvania since buyers now shop year-round for properties on their smartphones, tablets, even set up email alerts with new listings! 

From this time last year, current real estate inventory is slightly higher— which is great news! If you have questions about the market where you live, it is always best to contact your agent for an up-to-date look at the market. As your local experts, the Kat Geralis Home Team is here to help!

From October to December 2019, 1,714 homes were sold (just under where this number sat in our Q3 report) with a median sold value of $240,450 (again, slightly lower than our last report).

The number of units listed during this timeframe was 1,690 homes— which comes in under this number from our last report, but as you can see, buyers are still very much browsing inventory and not waiting long to jump on the home that best meets their needs as the days on the market figures stayed about the same as our Q3 report.

The average days on the market for New Castle County for homes listed during October, November, and December are as follows:

October: 42

November: 42

December: 40

The winter months, especially over the holidays, can be less busy when it comes to moving homes in New Castle County, but you'll notice that the Days on Market (DOM) for properties during this time didn't increase much from month to month.

Updated real estate market stats can provide brief insight into the local real estate market, but they are just that— brief! Contact us today for more information about the market where you live in Delaware or Pennsylvania or with any questions you have about buying or selling a home before the end of the year!

We even offer FREE First-Time Home Buyer Seminars!
