Year-over-year, March’s median sales price is down 7.8 percent.

Homes Sold
As predicted in last month’s market report, home sales rose significantly in March. The 401 homes sold in March represents a 45.3 percent month-over-month increase. That being said, year-over-year, home sales remain down 20.1 percent
Inventory
Available inventory is unchanged from this time last month. 550 homes are currently available for purchase in the Reno-Sparks market — representing just above a one month supply of inventory.
Prospective home sellers are reluctant to place their homes (with a mortgage at 3%) on the market, and then have to purchase with a new mortgage at 7%.
Year-over-year, available inventory is up 77.4 percent.
512 homes are presently pending sale in the Reno-Sparks market. That number is down 2.1 percent from February’s 523 pending sales this time last month; and is also down a notable 29.3 percent, year-over-year!
Given the number of pending sales, April sales should come in flat relative to March’s 401 homes sold.
Days on Market
March’s median days on market (DOM) came in at 75 days — a decrease of 11 days from February’s median DOM. Year-over-year, March’s DOM is nearly double March 2022’s DOM number.
