The total number of houses sold in Birmingham residential area sales for the current month totaled 1,454 units, a decrease of .75% from the previous year.
The median (middle) sales price was right at $275,000, representing a 13.9% increase from November’s 2020 median sales price of $241,500. The average sales price was $330,100, a 12.1% increase from one year ago.. (The average number skews higher due to the effect of higher-end homes).
Days on market – the average days until a house goes under contract to sell – decreased over 60.9% versus last year, to 9 days. This statistics has consistently declined every month for an incredibly long time. If your house is in great shape, shows well, and is priced correctly, this number indicates that it should sell quickly.
Total inventory (the number of houses available for sale) declined over 37.0% when compared to last year. Declining inventory has also been a long-standing trend that continues (inventory even declined versus last month). Based on the current pace of sales, there is a 1.7 month supply of houses on the market. If your house is priced well, shows well, and is in good shape, it should sell quickly!
