North Kingstown home absorption rate for the month is 9.6 months of home inventory (a normal market is 5-7 months of inventory and considered a balanced market). The home inventory has decreased a bit but not enough to make it more balanced.  Yet home buyers are stating to me that they are finding it difficult to find move in ready home that are priced to buy.

  • Home absorption is the amount of time it will take to sell all the homes currently on the market without any additional homes being added to the current home inventory.
  • Breakdown of the 16 North Kingstown sold homes is as follows for the month: 9 homes sold under $300,000, 5 homes sold between $300,000-$400,000, 1 home sold over $400,000 and 1 home sold for over $1 million.  The under $300,000 market remains a strong selling market in home sales right now.
