The average sale price decreased by $8,926 and the median sale price slightly decreased by $4,125. With the exception of August, the average and the median sales price has been steadily increasing since January 2009.
Homes $175,000 and below are selling quickly due to first time home buyer traffic picking up in recent months. If many first time home buyers are going after the $175,000 and below price range, it appears, both the average and median sale price are being impacted as a result.
