In May 2021, the local real estate market continued a terrific turn-around from setbacks caused by the Covid-19 pandemic lockdown in the spring of 2020. The total dollar volume of sales in May 2021 rocketed upward an amazing 304% from May 2020. And, the number of real estate transactions in Summit County in May 2021 likewise surged 173% from May 2020. Of course, it is important to remember that May 2020 fell in the midst of the pandemic lockdown in Summit County. By May, all local resorts continued to be closed with short-term rentals vacated and transportation services suspended. Consequently, with almost no visitation or other individual activity permitted locally in portions of May 2020, it is unsurprising to see that the local real estate market in May 2021 fared so much better.
