Average Sold Price per SF was Appreciating*

The Average Sold Price per Square Footage is a great indicator
for the direction of property values. Since Median Sold Price
and Average Sold Price can be impacted by the 'mix' of high or
low end properties in the market, the Average Sold Price per
Square Footage is a more normalized indicator on the direction
of property values. The August 2024 Average Sold Price per
Square Footage of $220 was down 3.1% from $227 last month
and up 1.9% from $216 in August of last year.

The Days on Market Shows Downward Trend*

The average Days on Market (DOM) shows how many days the
average property is on the market before it sells. An upward
trend in DOM trends to indicate a move towards more of a
Buyer’s market, a downward trend indicates a move towards
more of a Seller’s market. The DOM for April 2024 was 30,
down 6.2% from 32 days last month and up 3.4% from 29 days
in April of last year.

The Sold/Original List Price Ratio Was Rising*

The Sold Price vs. Original List Price reveals the average
amount that sellers are agreeing to come down from their
original list price. The lower the ratio is below 100% the more of
a Buyer’s market exists, a ratio at or above 100% indicates
more of a Seller’s market. This month Sold Price vs. Original
List Price of 97% was down 1% % from last month and the
same as in August of last year.
