    The Takeaway

    For some months now, we have been seeing days on market (DOM) continue to climb. Generally, properties with a high DOM value will command lower prices than properties with a low DOM, because there is a perception that the property may be overpriced or less desirable. DOM often factors into developing a pricing strategy and can also serve as a thermometer to gauge the temperature of a housing market. A lower DOM indicates a strong seller’s market, while a higher DOM suggests less competition and a slower market. For both downtown and the Greater Charleston area, this number has increased significantly.

    Interested in the statistics for a specific area like West Ashley, Folly Beach, or Mt. Pleasant, for example? Let us know and we will make sure the information is sent your way. These numbers are available through Charleston Trident Associations of Realtors around the middle of each month.
