So.....it seems that we'll likely see a total of 1300 (!!!) home sales in 2016.  That is based on the 1213 sales we've seen thus far in the first eleven months of 2016 -- and the fact that 93 properties that went under contract in November.

If we do, in fact, hit that 1300 number -- it will be the first time that we've seen that many home sales in a single year since waaaaay back in 2006.  In fact, as far as I can tell (I only have data since 2000, but I'm thinking 1999 and prior were slower) there have only been four years, ever, when we have seen 1300+ home sales in Harrisonburg and Rockingham County.  We saw those figures in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006, as shown above.

In coming days, I'll take a look at why we should (or should not) be worried about another real estate "boom" locally.
