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 of respondents about their sales from March-May 2015.
Properties typically sold within 30 days in Colorado, the District of Columbia, California, Texas, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, North Dakota, Kansas, and Texas (red). On the other hand, properties were typically on the market for more than 90 days in Maine, New Hampshire, West Virginia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Arkansas (green). 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.
