The Reno/Sparks Association of Realtors released its October 2022 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 October, RSAR saw:
● Home prices continued to stabilize as the median price across the region was $540,000, unchanged from the same month a year ago.
● Homes were on the market an average of 36 days before they were under contract in October, down slightly from 37 days in September.
● The 1,265 homes on the market at the end of October was down by 10 percent from September.
“Homes in Reno and Sparks are selling for an average of 98 percent of their list price,” said Sarah Scattini, president of RSAR. “The inventory of homes on the market would meet sales demand for 3.4 months, and anything less than a four to six-month supply historically has indicated a sellers’ market.”
Savvy homebuyers are taking advantage of the stabilizing market to buy attractively priced homes today with the understanding that they can refinance their mortgages when rates decline again in the future.
All sales numbers are for existing “stick built, single-family dwellings” only and do not include condominiums, townhomes, manufactured, modular or newly constructed homes unless otherwise stated.
