It was a relatively calm month for Claremont home sales in October. New inventory is often slow to hit the market this time of year, which can result in a lower number of home purchases. Compared to October 2012, the average number of days homes are on the market is still less, as they continue to sell more quickly and for higher prices. Sellers will find the biggest sales impact is marketing and competitive pricing. But due to lack of inventory choices for buyers and attractive low interest rates, the overall Claremont housing market remains strong.
