Quad County Market Statistics for September 2007

Well folks, the numbers are in! We are STILL seeing inventory levels creep up around the sound as well as prices increase. All except Pierce county. Pierce county prices were off by forty one dollars over last year. OK, that's probably not even worth mentioning, but in the interest of accuracy, I had to point out that the average sales price in pierce county was off a bit from last year. I'd call it a rounding error really. :-)

Amazingly the price of an avereage home in King county increased almost $50,000 over the same time last year while Pierce and Thurston counties were relatively flat. Snohomish county saw a modest increase over last year.

If you have any questions about the stats, don't hesitate to contact me, I'm here for you!
