Johnston County NC Home Sales Market Report Dec 2009.
Johnston County North Carolina suffered in 2009 as did everywhere else, however because there was not a mad spike in home prices the numbers when looked at other parts of the country can be signs for encouragement. I know this is little consolation to the builders who filed for bankruptcy or the people facing foreclosure.
Johnston County due to it's location so close to Raleigh, Research Triangle Park, The Beach and the availability of affordable housing and land makes it attractive to many.
So how bad was it in Dec 2009 versus Dec 2008

2008 2009
New Listings 271 229
Closed Sales 147 162
Median Sales Price $159000 $148.75
Average Sales Price $183510 $157160
Average Days On Market 108 109
Inventory Of Homes 1925 1542
% of Original List Price at Sale 96.4 97.5
Not too bad compared to Dec 2008, however the First Time Home buyers $8,000 Tax Credit spurred people to act.
I will be doing a year to date comparison and we can see how the year turned out.

Clayton, NC, Beautiful Older Homes Downtown.
While the town of Clayton NC has grown quite rapidly, the majority of the growth as in most towns is in the surrounding area's where there is the land to build.


So the town has become home to many new people in the surrounding subdivisions. And like most towns Clayton is a town with plenty of charm and history. The downtown is comprised of shops, restaurants, office space and plenty of older homes.


Some of these homes are completely refurbished and others in need of some TLC, and while none of these are currently for sale, they do crop up here quite regularly.

So if downtown living in a historic building is for you, them send me an e-mail or give me a call and I will start looking.
