What Do the Mill District Market Numbers Say Right Now?
The Mill District currently leans slightly toward sellers due to limited supply, though buyers still find room to negotiate on individual properties. The median sale price sits at approximately $554,000, up roughly 13% year over year, according to the most recent data from Redfin. Despite this price growth, inventory remains tight with just 48 homes available, leaving the market with 2.9 months of supply.
For buyers, the current pace provides a window to evaluate options without rushing. Homes are taking a median of 69 days to sell, and properties are closing at an average of 96% of their asking price. With only 6% of homes selling above list, buyers who are prepared can negotiate favorable terms on listings that have sat for several weeks.
Sellers hold the baseline advantage of low inventory, but they must price accurately from the start. The longer market times and below-list closing averages show that buyers will wait out overpriced homes. Sellers who prepare their properties well and position them correctly for the urban buyer pool continue to see successful sales.
