November brought a clear seasonal slowdown, with inventory dropping from 2,258 to 1,823 and new listings nearly halved. Buyer activity eased as well, with under-contract and closed sales both declining. Listing prices softened, but the average closed price rose to $693K, showing strong demand for well-positioned homes. Market time ticked up to 54 days, while the list-to-close ratio tightened to 98.9%, indicating buyers are still paying close to asking even as sellers adjust to late-fall conditions. With inventory at historic lows, the market continues to lean in favor of sellers.
