The numbers are in and 2017 finished just two sales behind 2016's record year! As you will see in the chart below, the median sales price has gone up to $240,000 just $20,000 higher than last year. From a comparison standpoint, in the year 2000, the median price was $130,000!
Real estate inventory remains low and there are more buyers than available homes.The housing shortage, paired with the low 30-year mortgage rates, lead to eager buyers and a market that is prime for selling. If you have been considering selling your home, or know someone who is, it may be the right time to have a comparative market analysis (CMA) on your home. CMAs are a free service that will provide you with an understanding of your homes value in our current real estate market. Please feel free to call/text us at 603-252-6428 or send us an email today.
