A practical way to think about timing

If you are shopping for a home, the timing question is not abstract right now. Last month, the typical sale took 27 days in Roanoke, VA, so the market still rewards people who are ready to decide.
The median sold price landed at $260,000, and sold-to-list price held at 98%. That tells me the homes that fit the market are not usually hanging around for long stretches. For a buyer, the best move is to have your budget and priorities clear before the right home appears. For a seller, that same pace is a reminder that serious pricing still gets attention. Do the homework early. Stay close to the recent sale level. Then act with confidence when a home fits the 27-day pace and the 98% pricing pattern.
