There you have it. Still nearly 70% of the Sold’s were at full price or above.
In the lower price ranges multiple offer’s are still the order of the day. Buyer’s must be prepared to put their best foot forward if they find something they really like.
I hear from other agents everyday they sometimes write 10 or more offer’s for a buyer before they get one accepted.
