Homes are much more expensive and selling quicker than this time last year, according to the latest from Canopy MLS.

However, October was a cooler than other recent months. For example, homes sold in 17 days at an average sales price of $388,987 in October. In July, the average sales price was $400,026 and homes sold in 14 days.

And there were fewer new listings and closed sales in October than September.

Yes, but: Median sales price in October 2020 was still up 15.5% from last year at $335,000. And the average sales price was up 9.7% year-over-year.

Bottom line: Sellers still have the upper hand in Charlotte, but buyers might be able to find some gems in this wild market.

To help your search, here are this week’s hot homes.
