On A Positive Note After the first seven months of 2014, we have an opportunity to look at the stats for the same period last year. For the first seven months of 2014 308 residential properties sold, as compared to the same period last year when only 276 houses sold. Although we are seeing more sales, it’s important to note that we are also seeing more houses coming into the market as well. Many potential sellers who have stayed on the sidelines waiting for the market to turn, have now decided this is the right time to get into the market. Sellers need note that as more competition is created it is most important that they are pricing their properties to be competitive with the new inventory. I continue to be optimistic and see the market growing with a slow but steady climb upwards. I believe that as we are seeing more serious buyers, prices will continue to track slightly higher. All the stats come from our local multiple listing service.
