Financial & Investment Benefits

With rising housing costs, multi-generational living offers significant financial advantages.

July 2025 York County Real Estate Market Report | The Linda Hall Team, Century 21 First Choice

Presented by The Linda Hall Team, Century 21 First Choice

July’s housing market in York County and across the Charlotte-area MLS showed a mix of steady buyer activity, more inventory, and longer time on the market. Here’s a closer look at the numbers and what they mean for buyers and sellers.

🏡 Closed Sales

  • Entire MLS: 4,218 homes closed – down 3.0% from last year

📈 Pending Sales

  • Entire MLS: 4,657 homes – up 15.6% from last year
  • York County: 377 homes – up 25.2%

Contracts are being written at a much faster pace, signaling strong buyer interest heading into late summer.

🆕 New Listings

  • Entire MLS: 6,246 homes – up 8.2%
  • York County: 446 homes – up 3.0%

More sellers are stepping into the market, giving buyers more options than last summer.

🏠 Homes for Sale

Inventory has grown significantly over the past year, helping to balance the market.

📊 Months Supply of Inventory

  • Entire MLS: 3.9 months – up 30.0%
  • York County: 3.3 months – up 26.9%

We are still in a seller-favored market, but moving toward a more balanced one.

💰 Median Sales Price

  • Entire MLS: $420,000 – up 2.4%
  • York County: $470,000 – up 4.4%

Home prices continue to rise steadily, with York County maintaining higher-than-average pricing.

📏 Median Price per Square Foot

  • Entire MLS: $217 – up 1.4%
  • York County: $216 – up 1.4%

Price per square foot remains stable, showing gradual year-over-year growth.

⏳ Median Days on Market

  • Entire MLS: 21 days – up 40.0%
  • York County: 21 days – up 23.5%

Homes are taking longer to sell compared to last summer, giving buyers a little more breathing room.

📌 Additional Market Insights

⏳ Median List-to-Close Days

  • Entire MLS: 65 days – up 10.2%
  • York County: 63 days – up 6.8%

Homes are taking slightly longer from the day they’re listed to the day they close, suggesting a slower but steady pace of transactions.

💲 Median Percent of Original Price Received

  • Entire MLS: 97.0% – down 1.0%

Sellers are still achieving close to asking price, but buyers are gaining a bit more negotiating power compared to last year.

👀 Median Shows to Pending

  • Entire MLS: 8 showings – unchanged from last year
  • York County: 9 showings – up 28.6%

It’s taking more in-person showings before a York County home goes under contract, which could indicate more cautious buyer decision-making.

📅 Shows Per Listing

  • Entire MLS: 4.1 showings per listing – down 18.0%
  • York County: 4.8 showings per listing – down 12.7%

While buyer interest remains steady, fewer showings per listing means motivated sellers should focus on strong pricing and presentation from day one.

📌 What This Means for You

For sellers, pricing strategically is key as more competition enters the market. Homes are still selling for strong prices, but buyers have more choices and more time.

For buyers, increased inventory and slightly longer selling times create a more favorable environment to find the right home without rushing.

Downsizing in Fort Mill: What Retirees and Empty Nesters Should Know

Fort Mill, SC is an ideal place to make that transition, offering everything from low-maintenance homes to active adult communities, all close to Charlotte, healthcare, and everyday conveniences.

Why Downsizing Makes Sense

  • Less maintenance: Smaller homes are easier to clean, manage, and keep up—freeing your time for travel or hobbies.
