St. Louis City Sales Data: 2008

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Premier Realty Exclusive MO license #2005035566

Last week, I put down a fair amount of information on the downtown real estate market and provided the sales information about the area.  I also talked a bit about how the year of 2008 felt for a real estate professional (http://www.loftsinthelou.com/2009/01/2008-real-estate-sales-downtown.html). 

The post is something I've tried to do for a few years.  Putting the year in perspective. 

Of course, that was just downtown. 

Hearing a news broadcast yesterday, I heard some remark about housing values and felt that the report was misinformation;  exagerating the markets downturn. 

Today I pulled up the city wide sales statistics.  Looking at single family residential, condominiums and multi-family homes, the report is included below, but the most notable data follows:

Year----Total Sales  Number/$ Value----------Average Price------------Days on Market

2007--------5000 / $701,227,559---------------$140,246---------------------88     

2008--------4532 / $515,009,046---------------$113,638---------------------99
