Charlotte Region 2020 Real Estate Report
Charlotte region remained a home seller’s market in 2020 despite the ongoing pandemic. Lack of inventory, buyer demand and historically low interest rates have resulted in higher home prices, lower days on market, multiple offers for homes in virtually all price ranges.
Charlotte Region 2020 Housing Market At A Glance…
… And What It Means For You…
With a razor-thin 0.8 months of housing inventory at 2020 year-end, there is no doubt that the Charlotte region remained a seller’s market in 2020. This is the most critical aspect of the Charlotte market right now, as it has been for the last several years: the lack of homes for buyers to purchase. Availability of affordable homes is really at critical shortage. The supply of homes, or rather lack thereof, is driving Charlotte area home prices up and the housing affordability index down as demand continues to outpace supply. Distressed property sales represent less than 1% of Charlotte region home sales and buyers looking for a bargain in this segment of the market will be disappointed. Multiple offers again reign supreme in all price points.
