Barrington Real Estate Price Trends

We look at benchmarks such as Median Asking Price, Median Sales Price, and Average Sales Price to gauge trends in value.   Median Sales Price is considered a best indicator of price trends because Average Sales Price can be artificially skewed by a transaction with an extremely high sales price or an extremely low one.   Median Sales Price is the transaction with a sales price in the middle of all the data with half of the transactions having a sales price above the median and half below.  Median Sales Price is up 2.2% this year after a 4% drop last year.  This is a mild increase in value for the large increase in demand and sales we have seen.     The calm before the storm…expect prices to rise if the inventory can’t keep up with demand which is a common problem in other towns around New Hampshire.

Federal Home Buyer Tax Credit

The now expired Federal Home Buyer Tax Credit was in effect in Barrington Real Estate in 2010 and because it was an artificial stimulus to the market, values were propped up only temporarily.  After the Tax Credit expired in 2010, the recession caught up with Barrington and New Hampshire Real Estate through to 2012 although Average Sales Price continued climbing and could be considered a result of a “sell off” of some higher end Barrington waterfront properties.   Buyers took advantage of lower prices and kept the market on an even keel.  Well, the rest of the world has caught on now.  Buyers want Barrington Real Estate because they recognize the value is there.   If you are on the hunt for good value, consider Barrington Real Estate and know your => Finance Options
