“Growing consumer confidence, a gentle increase in inventory and a healthy economy all contributed to making February another solid month in home sales,” said GNAR President Denise Creswell. “Our region closed over 2,200 units last month. Like January of this year, February hasn’t been this strong since 2007.”
“Several days of unseasonably warm weather certainly aided this month’s activity. Whether you believe the predictions of Punxsutawney Phil or not, Middle Tennessee’s real estate market is set to see an early spring,” said Creswell.
There were 2,735 sales pending at the end of February and the average number of days on the market for a single-family home was 65 days.
