In the monthly REALTORS® Confidence Index Survey, NAR asks REALTORS® “For the last house that you closed in the past month, how long was it on the market from listing time to the time the seller accepted the buyer’s offer?” The map below shows the median days on market respondents indicated for their sales from July-September 2015, according to the September 2015 REALTORS® Confidence Index Survey Report.[1]
Properties typically sold within a month in California, Utah, Colorado, South Dakota, Nebraska, Texas, and the District of Columbia. In Vermont, properties were typically on the market for longer than 90 days when sold. All real estate is local. State-level data is provided for REALTORS® who may want to compare local markets against the state and national summary
[1] The median days on market is the value such that half of properties stayed in the market below the median days and half of properties stayed on the market above the median days.
