This indicates that the market has sped up considerably with properties selling over two months quicker now than they did five years ago.
Properties Sold
A crucial indicator of market activity, the number of properties sold, unfortunately, was not available for December 2023. Similarly, data for the number of properties sold in December 2022 and December 2018 was not available either, making it impossible to compare.

From a five-year perspective, sale prices have skyrocketed from an average of $335,089 in 2018 to a commanding $712,500 in December 2023.
