Conditions in Mount Gilead have shifted noticeably over the past year in this rolling three-month view. Typical home values are up nearly 9% year over year, even as the median list price has fallen by more than 20%, signaling more restrained seller pricing. At the same time, the share of homes selling above list has dropped to zero compared with last year, underscoring a cooler negotiation environment.
Recent activity shows more homes moving through the pipeline. Homes sold are up about 25% from a year ago, while pending sales have jumped nearly 47%, suggesting stronger buyer interest despite changing pricing dynamics. Inventory has grown, with active listings up roughly 15% year over year and months of supply hovering around 3.3 months, which aligns with Mount Gilead’s classification as a seller’s market but with more options than in some past periods.
Days on market tell a different story, with the median time to sell stretching to around 67 days, far higher than a year ago and indicating that buyers have more time to make decisions. The average sale-to-list ratio now sits just under 93%, reflecting more frequent price negotiation and fewer bidding wars than in prior years.
