Summary
Northern Virginia closed 1,958 home sales in May, up 11.0% from a year earlier, with the median sold price rising 2.9% to $812,012.
Buyer demand stayed stronger than the national market as limited supply kept competition firm: homes sold in 15 days on average locally versus 29 days nationally.
Inventory showed only modest relief, with active listings up 3.7% to 2,733 and months of supply at 1.93, leaving the market solidly seller-favored.
Nationally, existing-home sales rose 3.2% to 4.17 million and the median price gained 1.3% to $429,300, underscoring Northern Virginia's sharper growth and tighter conditions.
