Abstract: A house is comprised of many different attributes that may affect how well it performs when listed for sale on the market. This study examines how certain physical characteristics of a house affect its listing price , time on market , and ultimate selling price. The physical characteristics in this study include age of the house , size of the house , number of bedrooms , number of bathrooms , presence of a fireplace , number of stories , and whether the home is waterfront. Data were collected from an Eastern North Carolina county and regression analysis was performed. The findings indicate age , size , number of baths , and whether a fireplace is present in a house all have a significant impact on the list price and sold price. The physical attributes of a house have no clear effect on the total number of days the house is for sale on the market.
