In September Bath’s Real Estate market continued to show signs of improvement! The inventory decreased again for a third month in a row giving buyers even less to look at when searching for the right place. Pending Sales remained strong at 27 showing that properties continue to move quickly as we head into the fall. Bath experienced another month with less than half of the inventory that we had to look at this time last year!

September ended with 44 Current Listings  (down 10 from August),  27 Pending Sales (down 14 from August), and  17 Closed Sales in September (remaining the same from July and August).   Average Sales Price to List Price Ratio remained at 95% for September, which also remained the same from July and August.
