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 August 23rd:
291
three-bedroom homes listed for sale.
$261,865
average original list price for those new listings, trimmed to reduce outlier noise.
$251,039
average sale price for the 268 three-bedroom homes that closed in the same period.
Those closed homes originally listed for an average of $264,810. That list-to-sale relationship is useful context, but every home still needs its own pricing conversation.

Mariya has been amazing - so helpful in every step of the home-buying
process - if we ever decide to buy again (or if anyone we know wants to
purchase in the area), we will definitely be repeat customers. She made
the process totally painless and that was much appreciated since we were
located in California when trying to buy our house in Urbana. It would
not have been possible without all of her help! I've dealt with several
real estate agents over the years and Mariya has been the absolute best!
