Buffalo Grove Real Estate Market Conditions – June 2018 – More Good News

Buffalo Grove Real Estate Market Update

The Buffalo Grove real estate market had another very good month in June after an outstanding April and solid May. Single Family home buyers had been demonstrating great patience and restraint, holding off for well updated homes or great deals. In June, 114 new single family homes were listed, following 119 in May, which is the highest number in over 10 years. Condos and Townhomes continue to seemingly sell as soon as they hit the market, with an extremely low average market time of 42 days! Based on my experience with our listings, the pool of buyers is very strong and there are lots of showings. Summer is here, and I anticipate the next couple of months should be very interesting … stay tuned!
