Welcome back to our video blog! We are going to be talking about July’s numbers and what has happened in last 30 days versus the past year and how it affects you!

So, there has been continued increases in sales and double digit growth in new listings for the fourth straight month. How exciting is that? That mean our market has bounced back!

The demand in our market is still strong, especially in the summer months. Inventory has continued to climb but the pace has slowed due to new listings. High demand and low supply has contributed to the median sales price increases. The year to date median price is nearly 10% higher than it was during the same period in 2012.
