2021 FA Annual Roundup: The Busiest Year Yet
2021 was a year to remember for the housing market. Between all of our agents, we sold 135 homes last year which grossed $52.9 million in volume while also exceeding our year goal of 100 houses! Our team alone held 2% of the entire York market share in units sold, and 3% in dollar volume.
Every 30 seconds, a RE/MAX agent helps someone find their perfect place. Our clients can expect not just the expertise of their agent but our entire team. For those looking to sell, our team is ready to help you sell and get the most out of your experience. On average last year, our listings were on the market for 12 days before being sold (that’s 7 days faster than the entire county average for last year). On top of our team’s expertise to get your home sold fast, 85% of our listings in 2021 went for over listing price with an average of $3,790 per home.
For those looking to buy, the market may be challenging to navigate on your own. York County has 20% less home inventory available this year compared to last year at the same time. It is even more difficult to purchase a home; this is where we can help with our extensive knowledge of the market and guidance to help you know what to expect. Interest rates are starting to increase, which will make the buyer pool decrease. This will slow down the real estate market and shift the market a little bit back toward being a buyers market. Although we anticipate it will continue to be a seller’s market, we do think this shift will allow homes for sale to stay on the market longer and there be less demand for each house. This year we don’t expect York County to return to the pre-covid sales price, but we also don’t expect the price per home to rise as much year over year as it has for the last two years. While the market is challenging, take advantage of our team’s knowledge to find your home now.
Whether looking to buy or sell, our team is here to support you every step of the way. 2021 was the busiest year we saw yet and with the number of deals our agents saw, our entire team learned more to help assist you through an obstacle or challenge.
