A total of 518 homes sold (24.2% higher than in February) at a median sales price of $256,000. This is only a slight increase from February (7.8% to be exact) but, it shows that homes are still in high demand. In addition, the average days on market was 27 days, strengthening the data that proves we are still in a seller’s market even with the increase in inventory.
