Limited supply helps, but leverage still depends on how your home compares.
If you want to know whether you still have the upper hand as a seller, the answer is yes, with an important condition. In Concord, VA, low supply supports a strong position, but buyers are still choosing selectively across a broad price range.
Concord, VA recorded 2.4 months of supply last month, and the market sat on the seller's side of balanced conditions. Over the recent three-month window, there were 10 pending homes, 6 new listings, and 6 recently closed properties. That is a favorable setup, but I would not confuse favorable with automatic. The same market that supports sellers also shows active homes at a typical asking price of $349,975, pending homes at $294,900, and recently closed homes at $263,500. My read is that leverage in Concord, VA belongs to the seller who enters at a number buyers can justify, not the seller who simply points to low supply. Use limited supply to support your negotiating posture, not to excuse weak pricing. Prepare for quick interest if your home is aligned with the market. Protect your leverage by staying credible.
