Every month I check home sales stats in Armour Hills, and for the past few months the numbers are the same–prices are up!  We are in peak homebuying season right now; as we head into the cooler months, sales will slow down.  Still, this has been an excellent  year for home sales in our neighborhood.

In June 2013, thirteen homes sold.  Average list price was $272,511 and average sales price was $266,188.  Average days on market was 51.  

In June 2012,  fifteen  homes sold at an average price of $222,660  and 106 days on the market.

Although two fewer homes sold this year, you can see that the average sales price is way up over last year. In addition, the average days on market is less than half of last year.

Now let’s compare to year-to-date figures:

From Jan-June 2013, forty  homes have sold  at an average price of $256,488 and 76  days on market.

From Jan-June 2012,  thirty-five  homes sold at an average price of $219,453 and 98 days on market.

Year to date, sales prices are way up as well.  As of this writing, there are 17 homes for sale in Armour Hills at an average list price of $251,353.  

If this trend continues,  I think we will end up with the highest average home sales price for Armour Hills in the past 5 years!  There are still plenty of active buyers looking for Brookside homes, and I predict sales will be strong for the next couple of months.
