Homes are selling extremely fast in our current market.

So, you want to know how fast are homes selling in my area? Well, if you live here in Louisville, KY I can tell you. Otherwise, you’ll have to continue searching my friend.

Even better, I will give you more! I won’t just give you an easy-to-find, city wide metric. Nor will I used generalized terms like “blazingly fast” but instead, I’ll give you the up-to-the-minute raw data. Yeah, I’m pretty much a data nerd. 😉

But since I’m a nice nerd, I’ll give you this information first, for free. Secondly, I’ll also give it to you in picture form and then also the raw data. I aim to please.

So let’s go!

How Fast Are Homes Selling in My Area

Here’s that chart I promised. Each circle represents a Louisville ZIP code. The larger the circle, the larger the geographic area of that ZIP. Nifty, eh?

Map of Louisville Days on Market Heat Map CDoM by ZIP Code - April 2017
Isn’t this map great?! Those are the average number of days it took to sell homes in each ZIP. Our market has never been this fast! (Well, maybe not never but as far back as any records I can find.)

As you can tell from the heatmap, there are only a few ZIP codes in all of Louisville where home sales are slow. But there are a lot where homes are flying off the shelves!

For example, check out 40217. This area is located due east of the University of Louisville, inside the Watterson Expressway and south of Germantown. These inexpensive homes, when available, are selling on average in just 10 days. That’s ridiculous really. Can you say, “hot market”?

How about 40056? This highly sought after area is called Pewee Valley. It’s just across the line in Oldham County. Homes aren’t nearly as affordable but that isn’t stopping buyers. This ZIP averages just 11 days in April 2017.

If you have a home in these hot areas, now is the time to sell.
