Saline Michigan Real Estate Market
The 2021 Saline real estate market continues to be a strong sellers market, with low inventory levels, strong price appreciation, and many over list price sales occurring. These June 2021 stats are compared to the previous year’s June 2020 statistics, which means for the year over year comparisons, numbers of transactions, and days on market can be skewed because there was a hot moment where real estate was effectively brought to a standstill. (Thanks, Covid-19.)
Average Sales Price
The average sales price for a single family property (house or condo) sold in Saline in the month of June 2021, was $476,232. Compared to June of 2020, this is up 15.30%. The median sales price also saw a pretty significant jump in June. Median sales price rose 22.24% to $473,390, when comparing June 2020 to June 2021.
Days on Market
Properties sold in June of 2021 were on market for an average of 89 days. This is up over 54% from June 2020. On the surface, this looks like the Saline market is overloaded with inventory. The reality is that there were three new construction listings that finally closed. They had been listed since 2016. Those three sales with 4 years of days on market were enough to push the average days on market up to nearly three months.
Properties Sold At or Above List Price
June of 2021 saw a 62.50% increase in the number of properties sold, compared to June of 2020, with a total of 65 properties receiving new owners.
A newly tracked statistic for the Studio is the percentage of properties each month that sell at or above list price. This metric is another way to gauge the supply/demand inequity in the Saline market. In June of 2021, 81.54% of the properties sold at or above list price.
When over 80% of all home sales are at or above list price, you can be sure that there is fierce competition among buyers for the limited stock of inventory that is coming to market. To be sure, Saline has seen a higher share of property selling at/above list for quite some time. For example, June of 2014 saw 70.37% of the 54 properties sell at or above list price.
