Closed Sales by Sale Price

The number of sales transactions which closed during the month
Economists ' note : Closed Sales are one of the simplest — yet most important — indicators for the residential real estate market . When comparing Closed Sales across markets of different sizes , we recommend comparing the percent changes in sales rather than the number of sales . Closed Sales ( and many other market metrics ) are affected by seasonal cycles , so actual trends are more accurately represented by year-over-year changes ( i . e . comparing a month ' s sales to the amount of sales in the same month in the previous year ), rather than changes from one month to the next .

Economists ' note : Like Time to Sale , Time to Contract is a measure of the length of the home selling process calculated for sales which closed during the month . The difference is that Time to Contract measures the number of days between the initial listing of a property and the signing of the contract which eventually led to the closing of the sale . When the gap between Median Time to Contract and Median Time to Sale grows , it is usually a sign of longer closing times and / or declining numbers of cash sales .
