Days On Market In The Woodlands

Michele Flory and Company — Sat, 09 Feb 2008 16:46:00 GMT

The average days on the market for homes listed in The Woodlands prior to receiving an executed contract follows the trend of 2007 and 2006. As we all know, summary averages can sometimes skew the results. For example, four of the $1 million + homes on the market in The Woodlands received contracts in January with an average days-on-market of 311 days. Without this historically slower selling list price category, our average days on market would have been 61 days!
