The Siena housing market experienced a significant slowdown in the second half of 2022 compared to the first half. From January to June, a total of 250 homes were sold, but from July to December, the number of homes sold dropped by 45.20% to just 137. This decline in home sales is reflected in the decrease in sales volume, which dropped by 48.92% from $71,097,028 in the first half of the year to $36,315,134 in the second half.
The median sales price also decreased by 12.50% from $432,000 in the first half of the year to $378,020 in the second half, and the median price per square foot decreased by 11.23% from $187 to $166. The median days to sell a home increased from 10 days in the first half of the year to 24 days in the second half, representing a 140.00% increase.
The second half of 2022 was marked by various factors that contributed to this slowdown in the housing market in Siena. One of the primary factors was the rising interest rates, which made it more difficult for potential homebuyers to secure favorable mortgage rates, leading to a decline in demand. Additionally, the ongoing issue of inflation also affected affordability, making it harder for first-time homebuyers to enter the market. These factors combined with a decrease in inventory of available homes also impacted the market’s performance in the second half of the year.
