The average price of a condo increased by 4.79% from June to an average of $190,269. Condos also showed a year-over-year price increase of 24.31%.
The year-over-year number of properties sold, remained strong. There was a 20.47% increase in the number of homes sold and a 20.19% increase in the number of condos sold when compared to July 2011.
Inventory remains historically low. There were only 10,827 combined homes and condos on the market in July. This offers some explanation as to the current market dip — homebuyers simply don’t have enough choices.July Market Snapshot:
