AVERAGE DAYS ON MARKET:<br />

The time to market a property has also been on a steady decline for greater than 5 years. Properties that do not sell within the<br />

first 20 days or less are either not in a condition that presents well and / or the price is not set to match the market. Just<br />

because it is a Sellers <strong>Market</strong> does not mean that Buyers are being wreckless with their <strong>of</strong>fers also indicating we are not<br />

setting up for a crash like that <strong>of</strong> 2008-2009.<br />

The decline <strong>of</strong> Days On <strong>Market</strong> also indicates strong Coming Soon campaigns with <strong>of</strong>fers coming as soon as a property goes<br />

Active on the market. These are savvy buyers with pr<strong>of</strong>essional representation to drive a strategy to win. Chasing the market by<br />

waiting for properties to hit the market and syndicate across advertising platorms is chasing strategy. Buyers <strong>of</strong>ten wonder<br />

how a property sells in 4 or less days. It is because it was presented as a Coming Soon for up to a month garnering interest and<br />

preparation from those buyers well represented, committed to buying and being ready to write the <strong>of</strong>fer at the time the<br />

property goes active and / or prior to it going active sight unseen.<br />

Days on <strong>Market</strong> is also rising with the s<strong>of</strong>tening Prices with Sold Listings eroding aging Active Listings with the<br />

decline in New Listings.<br />
