June 2020 Housing Report
Fort Worth home sales increased 14.7-percent year-over-year from June 2019 to 1,377 homes in June 2020. The median price for Fort Worth homes increased 4.6-percent year-over-year to $245,750. Both sales and active listings were up from April 2020.
"The bump in sales we've seen in June is great news and I do think we can continue to see that ebb and flow in the coming months," said Shelby Kimball, 2020 President of the Greater Fort Worth Association of REALTORS®. "Due to limited inventory, sellers have a fair chance of listing their homes and selling relatively quickly as there are fewer homes to compete with on the market.”
Fort Worth’s monthly housing inventory was 2.2 months, less than the year prior. The Real Estate Center at Texas A&M University cites that 6.5 months of inventory represents a market in which supply and demand for homes is balanced.
Homes spent an average of 40 days on the market, five days more than in June 2019. Additionally, active listings decreased 19.7-percent to 2,252 listings during the same time frame.
