Housing Market Update August 2022



Housing market update August 2022 Columbus, Ohio

For the Housing Market Update August 2022, data from Columbus Realtors shows that the overall market saw a decrease in home sales and units on the market versus a year ago, a situation that contributed to the continuation of rising prices. So far, it doesn’t appear there has been any sustained impact yet from increasing interest rates.
More data was added to this update than usual, including some county-level information.
