I’m sure you’ve heard on the news how prices and sales are going up nationwide. It is even true for the state of NH when all sales are taken into account. I hear the seacoast and southern part of the state are hopping. However, all markets are local, and looking at our area statistics, we have yet to experience a significant upswing in activity. The data below shows sales are even or a little ahead of 2012 YTD. New London - Currently 92 Homes for Sale 2013 36 Sold 92% of Asking 164 Ave. Days on Market (DOM) 2012 33 Sold 95% 209 DOM Newbury- Currently 63 Homes for Sale 2013 24 Sold 91% 156 DOM 2012 19 Sold 95% 124 DOM Sunapee – Currently 77 Homes for Sale 2013 30 Sold 92% 209 DOM 2012 30 Sold 93% 176 DOM Our market is moving in the right direction; just not as quickly as other parts of the state. Bottom line, buyers should be taking advantage of the low prices and low rates NOW! Sellers – do not overprice – it is still a buyers’ market!
