Single Family Home Sales for March 2011 – El Paso County

By in Market Reports

Home sales increased by 73.2% in El Paso County for the month of March when compared to February.

There were 53 additional single family home sales in March 2011 when compared to March 2010. There were also 303 additional single family homes for sale in March 2010.  The real estate market is showing signs of improvement but we will have to see what happens over the next few months.  In order for the market to stabilize and to create more demand, inventory levels need to remain low while home sales continue to increase.

Compared to the previous month of February, the average sales price ($211,426) and the median sales price ($180,000) both decreased. Last March, the average sales price was $215,625 and the median sales price was $189,900.

Both the average and the median sales price have been fluctuating quite a bit over the past few months.  This fluctuation can most likely be attributed to the number of short sales and bank owned properties that are closing each month.  It can take months to receive short sale approval from banks so these transactions to close.  It is possible many of the short sales that were awaiting bank approval, finally closed in March and in turn, affected the average and median sales price for Colorado Springs.
