Real Estate Agent with Retired

The following charts show the month to month residential real estate sales volume of the Greater Athens Ga metropolitan area for the months of June through September 2009.

Chart 1 shows the trends for both the number of residential units sold and the average number of Days on Market (D.O.M.) for those units. After a two month trend downward, the sales volume rose slightly in October while the average D.O.M. decreased slightly after a two month increase.

The total number of units sold in October was 112, up 6 units from September. D.O.M. fell to 197 days, down almost 3 weeks from the 215 days in September. Both are positive indicaters.
