Next week is the last week of the year. We will compare to 2020 and 2019 so you can see how this year did compared to the previous 2 years. You will see more closed homes this year than the previous 2 years even with such low inventory.
Buyers are still out there looking for homes to come on the market. So many of them lost out to multiple offer situations.
2022 looks to be more of the same. There is a shortage of homes across the nation. Until more homes are built or converted we will see prices increase.
