How is the market doing?
That is one of the questions we hear most often. The answer depends on price range, location, condition, timing, and the specific home, but we keep an eye on current MLS Grid data so the conversation starts with real numbers.
For a simple snapshot, here is what has happened with three-bedroom homes since May 22nd:
358
three-bedroom homes listed for sale.
$273,299
average original list price for those new listings, trimmed to reduce outlier noise.
$261,699
average sale price for the 284 three-bedroom homes that closed in the same period.
Those closed homes originally listed for an average of $268,547. That list-to-sale relationship is useful context, but every home still needs its own pricing conversation.

Mariya is a great Realtor for anyone to work with, especially first time
homebuyers. Mariya is able to explain every part of the process in a way that
allowed me and my husband to feel confident about our decisions while never
feeling pressured. Mariya always made herself available to us, no matter if
it was for a home viewing or to call for general questions. She kept us
very up-to-date even when there were stretches of time where there was no
news. I felt very comfortable being honest with her about my needs, concerns
and questions in the home-buying process. I felt that she really listened,
which resulted in her connecting us with a house that was a perfect fit for
us within our price range. Her flexibility and genuine personality makes
Mariya second to none. Honestly, I can't think of anything she could have
done that would have made the experience better for us. I would confidently
recommend her to anyone seeking to purchase or sell a home in
Champaign-Urbana.
