Selling Price per Square Foot The Selling Price per Square Foot is a great indicator for the direction of Property values .

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 February 2017 Selling Price vs Original List Price of 93.4 % was up from 89.1 % last month and up from 91.9 % in February of last year .
