North Carolina’s housing market has shifted to a balanced state, with 5.93 months of inventory, giving buyers more leverage and options even as overall inventory grows slightly by 3.5% year over year. With closed sales down 11% and median prices remaining relatively flat, up just 0.7% to $370,000, REALTORS® should focus on strategic pricing and managing seller expectations as homes sit longer across nearly all price points.
