How long do homes take to sell in Cornelius, NC?

What is the price per square foot in Cornelius?
Active listings in Cornelius are asking a median of $297 per square foot, on a median home size of 2,309 square feet. Price per square foot is useful for comparing similar homes in the same area, but it breaks down across different lot sizes, ages and finish levels.
Is it a buyer's or seller's market in Cornelius?
Cornelius currently has about 9.3 months of inventory — 110 active listings against a recent pace of roughly 11.8 sales a month. As a rule of thumb the industry reads under six months as favouring sellers and over six as favouring buyers, but that is a guideline, not a verdict on any one house.
