I look at the signs that tell me when a listing can hold firm.
If I were planning a sale, I would want to know where the leverage sits before anything else. In Cumberland, RI, last month the market sat at 1.06 months of supply and sales came in at 101.1% of asking, which gives sellers a clear starting point.
Last month, Cumberland, RI had 1.06 months of supply. That is a tight enough reading to tell me that pricing and presentation still matter a lot. The typical sold price was $506,250, and the typical sale moved in 18 days. I would see that as evidence that well-matched homes are still getting real traction. I would set the price carefully, make the first impression count, and keep an eye on early response once a listing goes live. Those are the decisions that matter most when the market is still giving sellers some leverage.
