If you are trying to decide whether to make a move now, the answer starts with pace and pricing. Last month, a typical sale was $468,000 and inventory stood at 2.76 months, so I would plan carefully rather than rush.
Last month, a typical sale was $468,000, the median list price was $468,500, and homes were moving in 28 days. That combination tells me North Raleigh, NC is still giving me enough evidence to take a serious look before I write or accept an offer. For buyers, that kind of setup means I would stay disciplined on price and condition. I would also watch the $522,000 list price on newly pending homes against the $468,000 typical sale price, because that gap is where negotiations and expectations can get out of line in North Raleigh, NC. Start with homes that fit the recent sale range. Be ready to move when the numbers make sense. Keep your attention on value first, not noise.
