Home Sales Rise Leading into Summer

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (June 8, 2021) – Data for the month of May showed 4,063 home closings, according to figures provided by Greater Nashville Realtors. This figure indicates a 24 percent increase from the 3,267 closings reported for the same period last year.

“This type of increase shows how quickly our area’s home inventory is going under contract and closing," said Brian Copeland, Greater Nashville Realtors president. "Buyers must remember, there are great homes out there. You can’t sit on the sidelines as prices and interest rates rise, but you have to make quicker decisions than prior markets.”
