New study reveals homes in Vallejo, California are being sold over list price more often than any other metro area in the US
We wanted to discover where in the US homes are selling above the asking price and where people are eager to splash the cash and settle down.
Our new study has revealed that Vallejo, California is the metro area selling the most homes above listing price in the US.
Relocation experts at Moving Feedback analyzed historical Zillow data for homes that sold at higher and lower prices than their original listing.
The sales-to-list ratios of the properties were averaged for each metro area, revealing which properties were selling at the highest and lowest amounts compared to their original listing.
California is home to three different metro areas that rank highly in the study, proving its popularity in real estate and its ease at selling a substantial amount of homes above asking price.
Florida, however, has four metro areas ranking as the areas in which homes are sold the most under the original asking price.
“Selling your home can be one of the most exciting times in your life, whether you’re selling up to settle down, getting into flipping property and creating gorgeous homes, or whether you just want to relocate, nothing feels better than when you sell over asking price.
It is inciteful to see which areas have the most desirable property for which buyers are willing to go a substantial amount over the original listing price and which areas are sticking to their original list prices or being sold for less.
The real estate industry is forever changing and becoming increasingly desirable for people to get involved in; this study offers a great insight into where buyers are making a good amount from selling and where might not be the best area to invest in buying and selling homes currently.”
