September 2009 Summary

Home sales in Lancaster County fell from August levels but did not drop appreciably from numbers posted in recent months, posting 423 in September, the same amount as in September 2007.  The average sales price continued it’s slide from July highs to reach $181,435 in September.  The sustained sales numbers combined with the falling average sold price is likely a result of the push to encourage first time home buyers to take avantage of the expiring $8,000 Federal tax incentive.
