Unfortunately, "average" is not much help. The time a home stays on the market has more to do with the asking price as opposed to the actual market value in today's difficult economy. If your listing agent has not properly advised you of your real value on the market, you could still be sitting there a year from now. A good market analysis, properly done, will show you how you "match up" with like kind sold properties and just what you have as competition on today's market. We are usually looking at 10% to 20% less money for a home than we were in 2007 to 2008. - Thu Oct 29 2009, 17:07
