Learn more about this month's Featured Property: 205 Weavers Road I just published my monthly report on the Harrisonburg and Rockingham County real estate market. Jump to the full online market report, or download the PDF, or read on for highlights.... Above you will note that we are seeing many market improvements in 2015.... Home sales have increased 13% YTD. The median sales prece has increased 8% YTD. The average sales price has increased 12% YTD. Median days on market has decreased 12% YTD. As shown above, February, March and April 2015 home sales have all surpassed the same month in 2014. We are likely to see 100+ home sales per month over the next 5 or 6 months as we continue through the Spring and into the Summer selling season. OK -- one last tidbit for you before I make you go read the full online market report, or download the PDF.... As shown above, more buyers (109) signed contracts in April 2015 than in April 2014 (107). This continues the trend of increased market activity in 2015 and is likely to lead to strong months of sales during May and June. OK, that's it for now. I'll hit some high points here on HarrisonburgHousingToday.com in coming days. This month has been a bit of a whirlwind, in part because of the new local MLS. If you study my reports intently from month to month, you'll see some new data making its way into the mix -- more on that soon.
