days last month and down 7.5% from 67 days in April of last

Selling Price per Square Foot
Selling Price per Square Foot
The Selling Price per Square Foot is a great indicator for the
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
more normalized indicator on the direction of Property values.
The April 2017 Selling Price per Square Foot of $111 was down
0.6% from $112 last month and down 0.4% from 112 in April 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 April 2017 Selling Price vs Original List
Price of 94.9% was up from 94.6% last month and up from
94.5% in April of last year.
