Good Time to Buy

According to Realtor.com data, the average number of days homes are spending on the market has dropped by nearly 10%  nationwide in the last year.  The average U.S. home now spends 84 days on the market.

But in some housing markets, homes are selling even faster, spending an average of 45 days or less on the market before they sell. What’s more, many of these housing markets are having not only some of the speediest home sales but also some of the largest increases in median home prices compared to a year ago.
