According to ATTOM Data Solutions, some sellers are scoring more profit than at any other time in the last decade.
Of course, the primary reason for this is the unabated climb of housing prices, especially over the last three years.
Currently, the average amount of time from purchase to sale is a little over 8 years.
This is the longest since the year 2000, when ATTOM Data Solutions began keeping track.
Housing shortages, low interest rates and also tight credit restrictions have made buying a home a winning investment proposition.
According to most of the experts tracking these figures, home values continue to hit record highs in many markets. And because of tight credit requirements, the bubble that occurred back in 2007 does not seem to be ready to burst.
ATTOM Data Solutions also reported that those who sold in the second quarter of 2017 saw an average profit of $51,000, a 26% return.
Cash sales accounted for 29% of all single-family and condo sales in the second quarter, up from 27% during the same period in 2016.
