The Central Ohio market remains solid heading into fall.
August sales took a slight dip year over year, but the bigger picture tells a stronger story: year-to-date closed sales are up, the median sales price rose, and inventory climbed to its highest August level in recent years. Buyers are finding a bit more breathing room - homes averaged 30 days on market and sellers received about 97% of list price at closing. Meanwhile, Central Ohio's median price remains below the national figure, reinforcing what makes this market so compelling.
More inventory, steady values, and a price point that's hard to beat. 📊
