Residential sales are actually down a little in 2016 compared to 2015 for the month of March technically. I do not think that is a true reflection of the market.

2015 saw 13 homes selling as existing single family homes they sold for a total of $2,132,100 or an average of $164,007. The average total square footage of those homes was 1579 sq. ft. or selling for the average price of $103.86 per square foot.
2016 saw 9 existing single family homes selling for a total of $1,485,600 or an average of $165,066 per home. The average square footage of those homes was 1475 sq ft or selling for the average price of $111.90 per square foot.
New Construction is still climbing in the area:
2015 Saw 2 New construction homes, that were built-in town for a total of $452,530 with an average sales price of $226,265. Total square footage of those 2 averaged 1769 sq. ft. with a total square footage price averaging in at $127.90 per square foot.
2016 gave us 5 homes selling that are new construction for a total of $1,233,263. One of those homes is a big home with an unfinished basement that I am going to take out of our averages as its going to skew the numbers. It sold for $410,170 and was 4750 square feet. The other 4 averaged $205,773 each with an average square footage of 1578 or selling for an average price of $130.40 per square foot.
2015 Also gave us 2 new construction homes on acreage. 1 that was 1818 sq ft that sold for $286,000 it was on 5 acres and the other a 2680 sq ft home that was on 3 acres that sold for $430,000.

So even though the volume is down a little for the year. Prices are still up and climbing. It's a great time to be selling property. If you would like your personal price opinion on your home please contact me.
