The Carolinas’ leading real estate company reported 21,190 closed transaction sides in 2018.
“While home prices continued to appreciate during 2018, listing inventory remained low,” said Allen Tate Companies President and CEO Pat Riley. “In the coming year, we should see prices begin to normalize and ultimately, listings begin to increase.”
