What this means: SFH is firmly sellers' territory — 34 days on market, closing at 98.5 cents on the dollar, up 6.7% year-over-year. The condo market tells a different story: 6.46 months of supply, prices down 3.2%, sellers sitting nearly twice as long. Condos are offering more negotiating room than we've seen in years. If you own one, now is a good time to talk strategy.
