Selling Price per Square Foot
Selling Price per Square Foot
The Selling Price per Square Foot is a great indicator for the
600
direction of Property values. Since Median Sales Price and
Average Sales price can be impacted by the 'mix' of high or low
end Properties in the market, the selling price per square foot is a 550
more normalized indicator on the direction of Property values.
The October 2017 Selling Price per Square Foot of $448 was up
500
6.7% from $420 last month and down 0.1% from 449 in October
of last year.

Selling Price versus Listing Price Ratio
Selling Price vs Original Listings Price
The Selling Price vs Original Listing Price reveals the average
amount that Sellers are agreeing to come down from their
original list price. The lower the ratio is below 100% the more of
a Buyer's market exists, a ratio at or above 100% indicates more
of a Seller's market. The October 2017 Selling Price vs Original
List Price of 92.1% was up from 90.3% last month and up from
91.6% in October of last year.
