The median home spent about seven weeks on the market and homes closed at 101.7% of list price. That is 4 days slower than eleven months earlier.

Buyers have room to read a listing's history before writing, and a price that has sat is a price worth asking about. Sellers are getting close to their asking price, which usually means the price was set against recent comparable sales rather than against what neighbors are asking.
