Matthews Housing Market Update: February 2022
Latest news on the Matthews (28105 zip code) real estate market in February 2022 and what it means for you…

However you “slice it,” Matthews has been a home seller’s market for at least three years now. Inventory of homes was down 52.4% year-over-year, further exacerbated by a drop in new listings.
Average sale prices of homes increased 17.1% year-over-year to $423,388. Median home sale prices increased 19% to $370,000 year-over-year. Price per square foot increased 25.8% year-over-year to $200/square foot.

Closed sales increased 16.7% year-over-year (equal to seven additional homes). Pending sales decreased 22.4% year-over-year. The 34.5% increase in new listings in December most likely helped closed sales increase in February. There remains the question of how many prospective buyers are now priced out of the Matthews housing market due to home prices that have continued to increase by double digits.
With a median selling price of 101.7% of asking price (up 1.1% year-over-year), Matthews home buyers should expect minimal to no room to negotiate.
