Lubbock still a seller's market

I've been posting and everyone has been talking about the Dallas area real estate market.  Specifically, the NE Dallas metroplex area seems to have a balanced (flat) market recently.  Well, it's not necessarily state-wide.  The Lubbock Avalanche-Journal reports that local home sales slowed but the median price increased in February, according to data from the Real Estate Center and the Lubbock Association of Realtors.

Home sales were down 5 percent from February 2018 with 280 homes sold. The median price increased 13 percent to $182,500.  The number of active listings grew 7 percent over the year at 1,024 listings.  Monthly housing inventory decreased from 2.9 months to 2.7 months in the same period. The TAMU Real Estate Center considers a six- to 6.5-month inventory a balanced market.

Homes in Lubbock spent an average of 87 days on the market. ​ For more on the Lubbock housing market, read the Center's latest housing report​​.​
