The following data are based on the MLS (private sales are not included in these statistics, nor are multifamily properties, or mobile and manufactured homes). The statistics are believed to be reliable at the time this report was compiled but are not guaranteed.
177 homes sold in April, 18% more than last month and another increase. Here’s the breakdown of activity
Single Family Homes Sold
148 (up by 17%); 11 Average Days on Market; Average Sales Price $1,011,814 (down 2%); Average Sales Price was 107% of original asking price
Condos, Townhomes & Duplexes Sold
29 (up by 26%); 8 Average Days on Market; Average Sales Price $494,203 (up by 1%); Average sales price was 107% of original asking price
Overall home sales in April increased last month, with a significant improvement in single family sales and for condo, townhome and duplex sales. The average sales price increased for single family homes, and for condos, townhomes and duplexes, compared to last month.
The days on the market (DOM) was 1 day longer for single family homes, but 2 days shorter for condos, townhomes and twinhomes. Sales prices ranged from $345,000 to $3,100,000.
Some buyers were able to negotiate their purchase prices down from original list price. However, 8 out of 10 paid more than asking price for their new homes. Clearly buyer demand and competition due to supply are causing this trend.
The data reveal that more than half of the buyers decided quickly about touring homes and making successful offers; 59% of the homes were pending in 1 week or less.
The median sales price of the single family homes that sold was $908,000 (up 1%), and $474,900 (down by 1%) for condos, townhomes and duplexes compared to last month.
