Thirty four homes sold in Manahawkin in January, 2012. That’s a welcome sign…in 2011 only two months saw more homes sold. In May last year, 32 Manahawkin homes sold and there were 40 home sold in June, 2011.
Another good sign is the number of Manahawkin homes under contract. Compare this to the Manahawkin housing market just one year ago.

WOW! You are having an improved year. Nice information, and if we get lost in the words can find our way back with numbers. Thanks!
Hey Laura, really just stopping by to say hello before the tornadoes that have been flying through my area blow me away.
Yahoo....catch the wave of sales on the shore...she does sell sea shells...shore homes...down by the jersey shore !
Laura, okay so the tornadoes didn't get me this time...I'll take it!! Anyway looked at your post a little closer this time and saw the December/January difference in Median sale price...that's quite a difference especially considering the time of the year. Hope it continues well into this next year.
