December is typically a slow month for real estate. Colder temperatures and holiday activities tend to slow both buyer and seller activity. December 2024 was no exception. Inventory decreased drastically as Sellers decided to wait for a more hopeful spring season. Median sold price remained unchanged from last month and saw about a 5% increase year over year. Days on market increased giving buyers time.
