What Today’s Numbers Mean for Your Home
May delivered one of the sharpest shifts we’ve seen this year. Days on Market nearly doubled — jumping from 19 days in April to 36 days in May. But the story behind that number matters even more: wellāprepared homes continued to sell quickly, while a handful of outliers — properties needing deeper updates or stronger presentation — sat over 100 days, pulling the average higher.
Buyers are still active and writing strong offers, but they’ve become more selective. The gap between “marketāready” and “needs work” widened noticeably this month, and preparation played a bigger role in outcomes than at any point this year.
