The Reno/Sparks Association of REALTORS® (RSAR) today released its January 2021 report on existing home sales in Reno/Sparks and Fernley, including median sales price and the number of home sales in the region. RSAR obtains its information from the Northern Nevada Regional Multiple Listing Service.
During the month of January, RSAR saw…
Steady prices, with a median price of $446,702 for a single-family home.
Sales activity — 370 closed transactions — that reflected the usual seasonal slowdown.
Continued very tight inventories of homes for sale.
“The current inventory of homes on the market is sufficient for only about two weeks of sales,” said Gary MacDonald President of the Reno/Sparks Association of REALTORS®. “Buyers need to be ready to move speedily when they find the home they desire.”
Members of the Reno/Sparks Association of REALTORS® put their knowledge to work to help buyers prepare to move quickly when they’re ready to make an offer on a home for sale.
