SUMMIT COUNTY MARKET STATS
June 2018
July 1 marks the end of the second quarter of 2018 and the start
to what projects to be a busy selling season. During the month of June there
were 171 residential real estate transactions in Summit County. This is 5%
decrease compared with a flourishing market in 2017. While total transactions
were down compared to twelve months ago, sales volume is up 9% totaling
$127,480,397 this month and $543,856,420 year-to-date.
Also important to note of these 171 transactions, 39 closed in
the luxury category of $1 Million and above. This is a 117% jump from just 18
luxury closings in June 2017. Sales in this price segment have more than
doubled this month and have had steady growth since February.
The significant increase in sales volume compared to the number
of transactions has pushed the average sales price higher. The three month
average of residential sales price is approximately $738,608 compared to
$700,000 in June 2017. On average, properties are selling for 98% of list price
and in an average of just 39 days.
As of July 1, there are 723 properties for sale in Summit County including 527 residential properties and 196 homesites. With an uptick of inventory in each town coupled with a 10-year low days to sell, we should expect to see Summit County real estate continue to thrive in the summer months to come.
