The real estate statistics for February are in. There were 49 sales of detached housing. This is
a large increase over January’s total of 36, but well off the 71 sales in February, 2021. The
Benchmark Price – that is, the price of an average home in an average area – increased a
staggering 8.2% to $973,900. This is the largest single month increase on record and another
indicator of the incredible ongoing demand for local real estate. With attached housing (condo’s
and apartments), there were 18 sales. This is up from January, but 66% down from February of
last year. The average Benchmark price for apartments was $567,400, while townhomes
jumped to $712,400. As for vacant land, there have been 31 sales year to date, down from 50
this time last year. The Benchmark price isn’t available for vacant land, but we feel prices are
still rising. How can prices rise while overall sales decrease? High demand coupled with low
inventory means upward pressure on prices. Stay informed - Call Us FIRST!
