With 6 houses sold for the first six months, First Place home sales are still quite slow, which is still not uncommon for Vancouver neighborhoods in this price range.  In our opinion we expect the homes in this part of Vancouver Washington to continue seeing this lower level of volume and soft prices.

It is our observation and opinion that this neighborhood has declined in sales volume and prices similar to Westridge Place and Maplecrest, and Ashley Heights.
