Princeton Real Estate - What Did That House Sell For? Prices of Houses Sold in Princeton NJ -February 2008

This is a real estate market report feature of the Princeton Real Estate Blog I started this year, because people, even those who are not planning to buy or sell their homes, ask me about it so often. 

This interest is understandable.  There is a deep concern about what the state of the housing market means to all of us. Of course, some people are simply curios about what their neighbors sold their house for, which could give them the idea of the value of their home.   

In this country the condition of the real estate market has an affect on many, if not most people, be it in the value of our own homes, real estate investments we have, rents we pay, or  broader implications for the economy, jobs, etc. The news as reported by the media is confusing and often contradictory, and the clarity is hard to come by, something I wrote about before.

This view of the houses sold in February 2008 give us a bit of hard core data, that can help make more sense out of what is going on in the Princeton real estate market. I can provide information for home buyers and sellers and those who are simply want to be in the know. It can also be used by those sellers who decide to venture into the FSBO route, but with the caveat "at your own risk".
