Closed home sale transactions in the waterfront community of Hernando Beach, Florida, decreased slightly but remained steady in June 2009.  Active listings also decreased with median list prices remaining stable and average prices slightly decreasing due to price reductions in the upper list price ranges.

Not surprisingly in the current market, the majority of properties sold in June were short sales or bank-owned properties as are those that are currently under contract.
