I am looking at how long homes take to move, because pace shapes leverage.
If you want to know how much room you have to think, Charlestown, RI offers a clear reference point last month, a typical sale took 42 days. My answer is simple. There was time to decide, but not time to drift.
Last month, a typical sale took 42 days, and that pace matters because it changes the way each side negotiates. Buyers had room to evaluate, while sellers still had to hold attention with a strong first impression. The same period also showed a sold-to-list result of 104.3%. That combination tells me desirable homes could still command serious interest even without an ultra-fast timeline. Watch the first week closely. Treat the early response as a real signal. Do not let a comfortable pace weaken your standards.
