“We’re starting to see the market pick back up as we get closer to spring and summertime. The warmer months are typically busier times in real estate, which we’re starting to see across the state,” Kentucky Realtors President Ann Elizabeth Delahanty said. “Total sales volume is on the rise again, and the months of supply are beginning to decrease, indicating more activity in an already strong market. We expect to see these trends continue as we progress through the year.”
Total sales volume in February reached $916.50 million, up 8.60 percent month-over-month (MoM) from January. Of the 2,983 listings that sold last month, more than one third fell within the $200,000 to $300,000 range, which reflects last month’s median sales price of $272,000.
Kentucky Realtors reports 5.30 months of supply available across the state, down from 5.76 months in January. Inventory is calculated monthly by taking a count of the number of active listings and pending sales across Kentucky on the last day of the month. Anywhere between four and six months of inventory is considered a steady market.
“Despite fewer listings on the market last month, buyers had a couple more days to make informed decisions compared to months prior,” Kentucky Realtors CEO Josh Summers said. “We’re still seeing a few lingering winter trends. We encourage buyers and sellers across the Commonwealth to continue engaging with confidence before the market gets more competitive.”
In addition to keeping up with market trends, Kentucky Realtors encourages buyers to explore housing affordability factors using the Purchasing Power Calculator, a tool that puts the power in consumers’ hands and helps buyers learn how changes in income, down payment or interest rates could affect their ability to purchase a home.
The comprehensive tool shows buyers how many listings are available and pertinent trends – such as average bedrooms and square footage for their price range – in their desired area. For more information and to access the tool, visit kyrealtors.com.
