Cincinnati Area Weekly Real Estate Market Update
Market Activity & Demand
- The market remains highly active, with a strong pending ratio of 99% (pending sales nearly equal to active listings), indicating very high buyer demand and competitive conditions.
- Average days on market (DOM) for active listings is 36, while sold properties averaged 34 DOM—homes are moving quickly, especially well-priced ones.
Pricing Trends
- The average list price for active homes is $438,140, with pending homes averaging $414,469, suggesting some sellers are adjusting prices to meet market demand.
- The average sold price is $361,033, and homes are selling at 98.5% of their final list price, reinforcing that pricing close to market value is key for a successful sale.
Inventory & Supply
- Months supply of inventory is at 1.9, which is very low and consistent with a seller’s market. This means there’s less than two months’ worth of homes available at the current pace of sales.
- With 2,850 active listings and 2,808 pending, inventory turnover is rapid.
Advice for Your Clients
- Sellers: It’s an excellent time to list. Well-prepared, competitively priced homes are selling quickly and for near-asking price. Encourage clients to price realistically to take advantage of high demand.
- Buyers: Expect competition and act quickly. Be prepared for multiple-offer scenarios, and advise buyers to have financing ready and make strong initial offers.
