What drives home prices in Summerville (or any town for that matter) to go up or down? The answer lies in the principle of supply and demand. When there are more houses on the market, home prices start to turn down. However when the supply of houses goes down, the home prices are driven up.
When there is a great difference between the demand for houses and the supply of homes for sale, we see prices increase quickly and bidding wars take place. It is not uncommon in Summerville to see a home come on the market in a certain price range and within a few days receive 1-2 offers on the home. (See Average Days on the Market for Summerville Home.) This chart shows why the real estate for sale in Summerville, SC has turned into a seller’s market.
