Homes Selling Faster Than Ever


The time homes spent on the market hit an all-time low in 2017 at just three weeks, the National 
Association of REALTORS® reports. A low inventory of homes for sale mixed with strong buyer demand has helped to keep market times low from 2014 to 2017.
During the height of the housing boom from 2001 to 2005, homes sold within a month of being listed. But as the housing market began to slow in 2006, the median time jumped to six weeks, and then to 10 weeks by 2009. 


Tight inventories and a lack of construction of homes has helped to keep homes selling faster in recent years, NAR notes.
