December is the last month in the calendar year, but it did not end up as the worst month in real estate. Even with the weather, power outages, and holidays, December ended the year strong. There was a considerable drop in “active” listings, but this typically occurs around the holidays as many sellers take their homes off the market to re-list again in January. I would expect a surge of listings to come to the market in early January.
