In the past couple of years in the Austin area the average marking time or DOM (days on market) has usually been between 2 days and up to 30 days, depending on the market conditions. Today the average time is about 30 to 90 days, but if you over price your home it could stay on the market much longer. Austin buyers have an unusual trait: they would rather make a full price offer on a fairly priced home than make a low offer on an over priced home. If your home is correctly priced (and isn’t particularly unusual), you should expect to have it sold within about 30 to 60 days, and another 30 days for closing.
