What does this all this information really telling us about the current market? It does not mean that your property has gone up in value. The average price of the homes that people have bought has gone up. It does tell us that the people selling their homes that were the most realistic about the value, and listed it accordingly, are the ones that were rewarded with a sale. With 35% fewer buyers out there this year and almost 1,000 residential listings in Eastern Iowa, it is imperative that the proper listing price is established.
