Seller concessions

50%Of sales included a seller credit
$20,000Typical credit when there was one
1 of 2Sales carrying a credit

A seller credit covers part of the buyer's closing costs and comes off the seller's proceeds, so the headline sale price overstates what the seller kept. Budget for it if you are selling, and ask for it if you are buying.

How buyers paid

Conventional 1 sales50%
Cash 1 sales50%

Cash was 50% of purchases. A high cash share means a seller has buyers who do not depend on an appraisal, and a buyer using a loan is competing against offers that can close faster.
