As the summer starts to wind down in Summit County, we are seeing fewer transactions and prices are fairly consistent with previous months. Summer's inventory is a bit higher than July 2021 and August 2021, but remains relatively low compared to the past 10 years. There are more choices for our buyers, plus interest rates, short term rental regulations and inflation all play a role in our real estate market trends.
