Timing

When to list in Celina, and when to buy.

Grouped by the month a home went on the market, which is the month a seller actually picks, rather than the month the sale closed.

April

Best month to list. Homes that went on the market in April found a buyer in a median of 53 days, about 18 days quicker than the rest of the year.

Oct/Dec

Softest months for sellers. 86% of homes listed in October sold below asking, against 83% in December. On a market this size those are the same answer, so buyers have room in both.

Month by month
Homes listed in April sold fastest, at 53 days. Best month for sellers.

Grouped by the month a home went on the market, not the month it closed. That is the month a seller actually chooses. Bars show the real figure, so a longer bar always means a bigger number. Months with fewer than 15 listings are left out.

Shares are of sales where we hold an asking price to compare against. They do not add to 100%: the rest sold at exactly the asking price, which is about a fifth of all sales. Bands under 20 sales are left out rather than shown on a handful of homes.

What sellers are giving
For sellers

How often Celina sellers help with closing costs.

Money from the seller toward the buyer's costs often moves before asking prices do, which makes it one of the earliest signs a market is turning.

More sellers are contributing than two years ago. In Celina, 69% of homes sold in the last twelve months came with money from the seller toward the buyer's costs. The typical amount was $13,000, about 2.6% of the sale price.

Both the median and the average are taken over the same cleaned set. Based on 1,780 of the 1,781 sales that closed in the last twelve months. The rest closed before the MLS recorded this field, and are excluded rather than counted as zero, and 19 entries above 10% of the sale price were dropped as data-entry errors.

Celina sales grouped by the elementary school a home is zoned to, which is the boundary most families actually shop against. These zones cover 96% of everything that sold here. Only zones with at least a dozen sales are shown, so every figure rests on real volume. The price column follows the Median/Average switch at the top of the page. School assignment comes from the listing record at the time of sale; boundaries change, so confirm current zoning with the district before relying on it.
