Another Strong(ish) Year of High End Home Sales

High End Home Sales

We saw an amazing 29 home sales over $500K last year -- which was the highest seen anytime since 2008.  This year we are on track to likely match that pace of high end sales, with 21 home sales over $500K in the first 9.5 months of the year.

Again, last year showed an amazing number (19) of home sales over $600K - the highest since all the way back in 2007 -- but it does not seem that we will see that many home sales in 2016. With 10 home sales on the books thus far, we have exceed 2011-2014 levels, but it seems unlikely we'll get all the way up to 19 home sales this year.

Finally, looking at the super-high-end home sales (over $700K) we are seeing a significant drop off from last year.  Last year we saw a remarkable 11 home sales over $700K, which seems to be the highest number on record, ever.  This year, however, we have only seen 3 home sales over $700K thus far.
