housing trends coralville ia: Coralville IA Real Estate: Homes Sold in Coralville March & April 2012 - 05/16/12 10:59 AM
The Spring real estate market is definitely in full swing in the Iowa City area. The last market report looked at home sales in North Liberty, today the focus is on home sales in Coralville in March and April this year.
April was a really  good month for home sales in Coralville with 30 homes sold in April 2012 compared to 13 homes sold in April 2011. That high number more than makes up for the fact that home sales in March were pretty flat.  The absorption rate in Coralville is at 7.5 months / 227 days on market. We still have … (1 comments)

housing trends coralville ia: Coralville IA Real Estate: Market Snapshot April 23, 2012 - 04/23/12 12:50 PM
The real estate market in Iowa City is heating up for spring, you know that already, I wrote about that last week. How about Coralville? If you follow my market reports you'll know that they don't move in tandem. Coralville is very different to Iowa City and had a harder time during the downturn. Fortunately Coralville also has a lot going for it, not only is it a real easy commute to Iowa City, there's also easy access to the Interstate. And yes, before you start wondering where I'm going with this, home sales are up in Coralville in April too. 22 homes sold in … (3 comments)

housing trends coralville ia: Housing Trends in Coralville IA: Homes Sold in January 2012 - 02/09/12 01:23 PM
7 homes sold in Coralville in January 2012 compared to 15 homes sold in January 2011. If that seems like a bit of a drastic drop, only 3 sold in January 2010, which kind of puts things more in perspective. In fact I went back a few years and the low single digits is more typical for the last few years, making 7 seem more "normal" for the time of year than the high 15 homes sold last year.
The absorption rate is at 7.2 months, that's an average of 217 days on market. (6 months absorption rate is a balanced market). Coralville is not doing … (0 comments)

housing trends coralville ia: Housing Trends in Coralville: Home Sales & Prices January - September 2011 - 10/27/11 12:27 PM
With September behind us it's been a great month to take a look at the first three quarters of the year to figure out what's going on in the real estate market in our area. Last week I looked at Iowa City. Today I'm looking at Coralville. I put together two graphs to show home sales and prices for both 2011 and 2010. And if you're wondering why I didn't put all the data in one graph, I tried that and it was nothing but confusing so I split it up into 2 again. If you have trouble reading the data on … (0 comments)

Coralville IA Real Estate Market: Home Sales in the 2nd and 3rd Quarter 2011
Yesterday I looked at home sales in Iowa City, today its Coralville's turn. The data is from the Iowa City MLS and shows home sales in Coralville in the 2nd and 3rd quarter. This year it makes sense to look at data from the previous quarter to look for a trend in the housing market. Usually the more accurate way to gauge housing trends is to compare to the previous year. That's not working as well for us this year with the first time home buyer tax credit … (0 comments)

housing trends coralville ia: Homes Sold in Coralville IA August 2011 Compared to August 2010 - 09/06/11 02:06 PM
Home Sales in Coralville were up in August by a very impressive 52%. According to data pulled from the Iowa City Area MLS this morning 38 homes sold in Coralville in August 2011 compared to 25 homes sold in August 2010. The biggest increase was with zero lots. Things are definitely picking up in the area in the 3rd quarter with home sales in both Iowa City and Coralville up in July and August. Keep an eye open from my weekly reports in September. The way things are progressing I expect to share more positive information on housing trends in the … (0 comments)

housing trends coralville ia: Homes Sold & Average Price - Coralville IA February 2011 Compared to February 2010 - 03/19/11 03:15 AM
8 homes sold in Coralville IA in February 2011 compared to 11  in February 2010. In January the year over year numbers were up. In February they're down. I guess we need to wait for this month's numbers to figure out whether the Coralville housing market is trending up or down. I'll be watching how the housing market shapes up in Coralville and the greater Iowa City area as we head into the Spring market.

housing trends coralville ia: Coralville IA Housing Trends: Home Sales in Coralville December 2010 compared to December 2009 - 01/25/11 01:01 PM
The Iowa Association of Realtors released its Housing Trends Report for Iowa last week and home sales are up in Iowa for December. Curious soul as I am I needed to know how we're doing in the Iowa City area. At the beginning of the month I did a year over year report of homes sold in the area. Yesterday I looked at the December numbers for Iowa City. Today it's Coralville's turn. 11 homes sold in Coralville in December 2010 compared to 13 in 2009. Interestingly, just like Iowa City, more condos sold than single family homes. That surprises me … (1 comments)

housing trends coralville ia: Coralville IA Real Estate: Residential Sales 2010 Compared to 2009 - 01/06/11 08:17 AM
Yesterday I looked at residential sales and the average price of homes sold in Iowa City in 2010 compared to 2009.  Today I'm looking at Coralville. Fascinating stuff. With an entire year's data to research I could spend all day every day pulling data from the Iowa City MLS to compare. Lucky I like doing this, although I have to admit with things picking up now in the New Year I'm a bit challenged to find the time to put together as many reports as I would like. I'll catch up though, so if you haven't already, then bookmark my blog … (0 comments)

housing trends coralville ia: Coralville IA Homes: Average Price of Homes Sold November - 2006 through 2010 - 12/08/10 10:43 AM
 

 
 
On Monday I looked at the number of homes sold in November in Coralville. I collected data from the Iowa City MLS showing the number of homes sold in November from 2006 through 2010. Today I thought I'd follow up with the average price in the last five years. The number of homes sold in November in Coralville was down, but on the up side the prices are up. The same goes for North Liberty. Oddly enough, in Iowa City it's the other way round.Coralville IA: Number of  Homes Sold in November: 2006 - 2010Iowa City Average … (0 comments)

Thanksgiving week 3 homes sold in Iowa City and that was it, none sold in either Coralville or North Liberty. The absorption rate for Coralville is 8.0 months - That's the time it takes for the market to "absorb" homes. The first step in calculating the absorption rate is to find out how many homes sold in the past 12 months and how many are currently on the market. 300 homes sold in … (0 comments)

Coralville IA Real Estate: Market Statistics October 2010 Compared to October 2009

13 homes sold in Coralville in October 2010 compared to 18 homes sold in October 2009. Not very encouraging numbers considering home sales in Coralville were up last month. We have a very choppy market at the moment, making it difficult to analyze short term data. One thing remains constant though - It continues to be a great market for buyers!
