Lucky sellers? Prices continue to climb

Bright Insights, March 2022: While record low inventory continues to drive up prices, demand strengthened across the major metros in February.

March 14,  2022

Sales were not far off pre-pandemic levels, even as prices are still on the rise due to historically low supply levels.

Soaring prices have not impacted buyer demand across the major metros: sales last month were close to what they were in February 2020, and days on market are at February 2021 levels. These are encouraging signs for a busy spring market in 2022.
