Recent activity shows why not every property should be judged by the same timeline.
If you are trying to figure out whether homes in East Elmhurst, NY are moving fast or slowly, the better question is which stage you mean. My answer is that timing changes by stage, with active homes typically at 54 days, pending homes at 43 days, and sold homes at 118 days recently.
One timeline never tells the whole story. Over the previous 30 days in East Elmhurst, NY, active homes typically showed 54 days in the system, pending homes showed 43 days, and sold homes closed after a typical 118 days. That spread is why I do not judge a listing by one timing number alone. For buyers, this means a listing that has been available for several weeks is not automatically stale if the broader closing cycle is longer. For sellers, it means exposure time has to be evaluated against your pricing position and the stage of the process, not panic alone. Compare a home's timeline against its price and property type. Review whether the listing is early, mid-cycle, or pushing past the recent norm. Use timing as a clue, not a conclusion.
