December 2010 Williamson County Real Estate Market Overview – The Grumbles Team Proprietary Update

The Chart above can be clicked to view in full detail. This is the chart showing how the real estate market is fairing in Williamson County. As you might expect the absorption rate is slowing as we head into the holiday season and people’s attention turns towards shopping for gifts and less on shopping for homes. The Months of Inventory did not grow substantially though as less homes are listed for sale during the holiday season, which is a very valid reason for aggressive marketing if you still desire to sell a home in Williamson County. The buyers are serious buyers and your home has less competition. So if your home has recently been withdrawn or expired from the MLS, then please contact The Grumbles Team today to interview us for the position of selling your home during this season.
