If you are weighing a move, the numbers point to a market that still rewards sharp pricing and clean preparation.

If you are trying to decide whether this is a smart moment to put your home on the market in Oxford, MI, my answer is yes - but only if you treat pricing and timing seriously from day one. Over the previous 30 days, supply stood at 1.33 months and recent offers landed at 100.3% of asking, which tells me sellers still have leverage, but it is leverage you need to use with discipline.
A typical sale in Oxford, MI took 13 days over the previous 30 days, and the typical sold price was $455,750. New listings also reached 41, while the typical new asking price came in at $490,000. I read that as a market where serious homes can still move quickly, but new competition is active enough that sellers cannot afford a lazy launch. For a homeowner planning a move, that matters. Buyers in Oxford, MI are still paying very close to asking, yet active homes carried a typical asking price of $659,500 with 36 properties available at the end of the month, so your opportunity is not just listing - it is listing in a way that stands up against the homes already on the market. A strong seller's market does not rescue weak presentation or a price that ignores current competition. I would do two things first. Price against the homes active right now, not against your ideal number. Then get the house photo-ready and showing-ready before it goes live, because a typical sale pace of 13 days leaves little room to fix preventable mistakes after buyers have already formed their first impression.
