How Long Does It Take To Sell A Home in Bristol VA 24201~24202 4-2013 This is a question I often hear when talking to to people who might be interested in selling their home. It's a really good question and I would want to know the same thing! So once a month I will keep you up-to-date on the average days on market in the Bristol VA 24201~24202 Area! This number is not always exact as some homes may have been listed previously by another agent and therefore doesn't reflect the true number of days it took to sell, but as a whole it is a good thing to look at!   As of 4.30.2013 Average Days on Market in Bristol VA 24201~24202 are ...162 compared to 198 last year ...That's down 18.27%   Have a great day!
