The trend continues: Prices up, time on market down. Some counties see increased listings which is really good news.

The real estate market remains very active in the Metro Milwaukee area. Sales are up over .7% overall compared to last year at this time.

The average sales price continues to rise. “Days on Market” is down considerably across the metro area.

Well-priced homes in the lower price ranges are getting snatched up quickly.  You do, however, still need an agent to sell.  Getting a buyer is JUST the tip of the iceberg when it comes to selling a home. And as for buyers, a buyer agent is needed now more than ever!
