3.) It takes average 115 days to sell aSanta Clara home, but last April was 46 days.

With all the numbers that show this month we have almost 10% more homes at theSanta Clara for sale and about 10% less homes actually sold. The average and median price for Santa Clara homes both dropped about 40% from last April to this April. The price dropped due to a lot of lower end homes as short sales and REO (bank owned) homes sold.
