Homes are currently fetching 97.4% of asking against a 97.7% five-year norm. What that leverage means for a specific home depends on its type, style, and price band - that’s the conversation I have with the actual comparables on the table.

Pricing & pace

Typical detached home sold price (line) against days on market (bars), last 24 months.

The grey bars are how long homes take to sell; generally, when they shrink, the price line rises. Right now Bowness is selling slower than the seasonal norm (a 3-month median of 46 days versus 30 days historically for this time of year). Historically, when homes take this long to sell, inventory builds and prices have tended to cool or plateau.
