Richmond VA Real Estate Market Update for 2012

By
Real Estate Agent with RVA Home Team 0225195925

As Spring is fast approaching, now is a great time to take a look at how the Richmond VA Real Estate Market faired in 2012 for single family homes.

Listings Sold: 1915
Lowest Sales Price: $5,000
Average Sales Price: $209,663
Highest Sold Price: $2,900,000
Average Days on Market 65

*Information from the CVRMLS as of Jan 18, 2013 for the time period of Jan. 1, 2012- Dec. 31, 2012. Information deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

Now let’s compare those numbers with the performance of the 2011 Richmond VA Real Estate Market:

Listings Sold: 1832
Lowest Sales Price: $2,750
Average Sales Price: $194,234
Highest Sold Price: $2,514,500
Average Days on Market 73

*Information from the CVRMLS as of Jan 18, 2013 for the time period of Jan. 1, 2011- Dec. 31, 2011. Information deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

The total amount of listings sold was up by approximately 5%, the average sales price increased by 8%, and days on market dropped by nearly 11%. As you can conclude, the Richmond VA Real Estate market had positive movement in 2012, just as it did for the Henrico County Real Estate Market. We are already starting 2013 off with an inventory shortage, yet an abundant amount of buyers looking to make the transition into home ownership!

Does this have you screaming, “sell my Richmond VA home?" If so, contact your Richmond VA real estate agent, Shannon Milligan with Keller Williams Realty Richmond West, and let’s get you packing!

What’s the value of my home?

It looks like there are positive signs in the Richmond VA real estate market.  We are seeing positive trends in So. New Hampshire as well.  I hope this trend continues into the spring market.

It looks like the Richmond VA real estate market update for 2012 is moving in the right direction. I think 2013 will be an even better year.
