If you’ve thought about selling your Outer Banks home in 2019, there are a few things you need to understand about our market before making that decision. Over the last 12 months, interest rates and inventory have both been on the rise. This tends to cause the market to slow down.

In our Outer Banks market, where many of the properties are second homes, the decision to sell comes down to supply and demand. And judging from the 12% increase in supply and the 4% decrease in closed sales we observed in July, it’s clear that the local demand for homes has become somewhat stagnant.

You’ll need to be more strategic about your approach if you do decide to make a move.
