SNR includes Washoe, Storey, Lyon, Douglas and Churchill counties, along with Carson City. It obtains information from the Northern Nevada Regional Multiple Listing Service, according to a news release.
“Home buyers are finding more opportunities to buy in the current market, given lowering prices across Northern Nevada,” said Sara Sharkey, co-president of SNR. “This, combined with the fact that the median number of days to contract is up a combined 12.9 percent across the counties, makes the market more accessible to buyers during this season.”
“We are seeing more buying power for buyers today; however, it doesn't make it a bad time to sell,” said Christie Fernquest, co-president of SNR. “Sellers can still find high value in selling in Northern Nevada as a whole during the winter months. We recommend connecting with a Realtor for navigating the selling and buying market with ease."
