All home sales have not yet been reported but it is now clear that there were upwards of 1300 home sales in Harrisonburg and Rockingham County last year.  We are likely to see that figure rise a bit more over the next few days as the last few sales are reported in our local MLS.

This is a significant year-over-year increase in home sales as compared to previous years....

• 2014 = 2% increase over 2013
• 2015 = 3% increase over 2014
• 2016 = 16% increase over 2015

Stay tuned for my full market report in the next week or so, as well as predictions for the 2017 housing market.

Oh, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
