2021 sales slowed a bit at the end of the year- thankfully.  Still, lower sales don’t dim the spotlight on another record-breaking year for real estate in Cincinnati.  Economists and even the local Realtors® are anticipating another record-breaking year in 2022.  Maybe not as fast as 2021 but still a very busy year for local home sales.

Market Time

The average Days On Market(DOM) shows how many days the average Property is on the Market before it sells. An upward trend in DOM tends to indicate a move towards more of a Buyer’s market, a downward trend a move towards more of a Seller’s market. The DOM for December was 21, up 5.0% from 20 days last month and down -8.7% from 23 days in December of last year. The December 2021 DOM was at its lowest level compared with December 2020 and 2019.
