For the last few months many of the agents here in my local area have been saying the inventory of homes has been dropping at a radical rate. Today an agent told me there are less than 100 homes for sell in this city of 200,000. He has over 20 buyers but no homes to show them and today’s home I inspected had over 12 offers in 10 hours and went for 25 grand over the asking price!!!

— 3,635 homes found
So what is the average selling price of homes there? If there are so many buyers and so little homes, they should be going for big bucks, and you should be able to command big bucks for your fee.
