Edmond Oklahoma Real Estate Market Strong, but Becoming Buyer-Friendly

Posted Jan 23, 2008 @ 7:40 pm, Viewed by 303 Visitors, Read 313 Times.

Despite dismal media reports of the national real estate market, the Edmond, Oklahoma real estate market continues to be strong.  Sales statistics for 2007 prove that more homes are selling, and average home prices continue to increase.  In fact, home sales have risen every year in Edmond since the year 2000.

However, average days on market increased slightly in 2007.  One reason for the increase in the average selling time could be that there is an increase in inventory, resulting in more of a buyer's market.  This is great news for buyers looking to move to Edmond, especially considering the recent reduction in mortgage interest rates. 

For sellers in Edmond, this means that pricing your home correctly from the beginning is critical.  Recent experience has shown that the best priced homes sell quickly, and for more money than homes that started out too high, and were then forced to discount.  Homes for sale in Edmond are still selling well, but sellers must be realistic in their listing price.  Enlisting the help of an Edmond Realtor can also give you more ideas of how to sell your home quickly, and for a higher sales price in this market.
