Additional Thoughts

As noted above, sales of Shepherdsville homes account for a large percentage of the total Bullitt County sales. The lower list price and sales price variation is largely attributable to the sale of the $25,000 property. This was literally a fire sale (40-50% of the house had been consumed) and does not reflect negatively on surrounding home values. Somewhat interestingly, the house received 5 bids in 2 days.

While Shepherdsville homes continue to sell in each price range, the entry-level (<$125,000) price point is the most active. Investors are active in the market as evidenced by the fire-damaged sale described above and the the low DOM of some of the homes. While buyer's in this price range do have some selection, they should not expect to steal a property especially if it is in good shape.

If you are selling an upscale home or luxury home in Shepherdsville, be aware that buyers expect to find it in move-in condition. There are too many substitutes to think that you can skimp on repairs and / or offer credits.
