Over the last couple of days, I posted the June numbers for St. Louis County and St. Louis City.
Below you’ll find the June real estate report for St. Charles County.
Just like in St. Louis County and City, available inventory for St. Charles County dropped in June. In addition, the number of closed sales climbed. That’s good news for sellers that are still waiting for a contract. Buyers are still buying but there will be fewer new listings to compete with in the next few months.
On the other hand, more buyers picked out a house and actually closed on it last month than in earlier months this year. If they didn’t pick your home (and they could have because you didn’t just come on the market in the last few weeks), then you have to really think about why they got back in their car and drove away without making an offer (assuming they even were inspired to come see your home).
If you aren’t one of the homes offering the very best features at the best possible condition in your price range for your location, then buyers will continue choosing other homes.
Data is based on residential sales through MARIS and is deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Active and under contract sales data is based on July 6, 2008.
