Sales: Lets begin with the total sales. In August, 1167 homes and condos sold. That number is slightly up from the 1148 that sold July. We also experience an increase from August of 2015 when 1071 homes and condos sold.
Inventory: Inventory remains steady. In fact 1692 homes and condos came onto the market last month. That's a healthy number and about a 5% increase from last year. We will see a drop in inventory around the holiday season, and that's normal.
Prices: Overall we are seeing the average sales price continue to climb year to year. To give you a snapshot, in 2014 the average sales price for a detached home was around $214,000. So far for 2016, that number is $222,000. While it's a slow climb, it represents slight growth in the health of the housing market.
