Selling is still slow going for Inverness homes, unless you price your property correctly.   It is true in any market, and especially this one: when you are priced correctly you will sell.  Buyers are looking for a good value and when they see it, they are willing to pay for it.

2007 saw 72 single family properties sell and close.  They had an average price of $724,112 and took an average of 232 days to sell.  There are 59 listings on the market right now with 6 of those under contract with buyers.
