Single family home sales volume for the 4 counties. Data pulled from the CincyMLS.

All 4 counties sales volume and average sale price is higher than last year.  Hopefully the lack of inventory doesn’t slow down sales during the summer months.

The biggest problem facing the Cincinnati real estate market is the shortage of homes for sale.  Buyers are getting discouraged with nothing to look at and/or getting caught in bidding wars.  Not a win/win situation.  And while the current real estate market favors sellers- many listing are sitting unsold as a result of overpricing.  It’s a win/win market for sellers who priced their properties to sell quickly.  In short-priced it right!
