seller market
July brought a small shift in your favor. Days on market jumped to 17, up 32.0% from June, so listings are sitting longer before they go under contract. That gives you more time to tour, compare, and make a decision without the same frantic pressure you might have felt earlier this year. Inventory stands at 4.1 months of supply, up 8.5% year over year. That's still a seller's market, but the gap is closing. Sold prices came in at a median of $393,450, and homes are selling at 97.9% of list price. You'll still face competition, but you won't need to overbid by much if the home is priced right. Watch for properties that linger past three weeks, they're the ones where you have real room to talk.

Buying a home in Lawrenceville: what people ask me most.
Is Lawrenceville a good place to buy a home?

The historic grid around the square for charm and walkability, Alexander Park and nearby subdivisions for family neighborhoods, and Sugarloaf Country Club-adjacent addresses for luxury.
