I break down what the recent numbers mean for timing a move with confidence.

If you are trying to decide whether to move now or wait, the clearest answer is to watch how Pittsboro, NC is being absorbed right now. Last month, supply stood at 4.92 months, and that tells me both sides still need a plan instead of guessing.
Last month, supply stood at 4.92 months in Pittsboro, NC, while the typical sale landed at $730,000 and a typical sale took 28 days. I read that as a market where well-priced homes still move, but they do not move by accident. For sellers, that mix matters because recent buyers still paid 100.5% of asking on average, yet the market also carried 187 active listings at a typical asking price of $895,000. I would treat pricing and presentation as the first two decisions, not the last two. Keep your price aligned with the closest competition. Make sure the home is ready before it hits the market. If you are buying in Pittsboro, NC, pay attention to the pace and be ready to act when the right home is priced correctly.
