Days On Market for Sold Properties
Market Time
The average Days On Market (DOM) shows how many
days the average Property is on the market before it
sells. An upward trend in DOM tends to indicate a
move towards more of a Buyer's market, a downward
trend a move towards more of a Seller's market. The
DOM for February was 92, down 34.3% from 140 days
last month and up 64.3% from 56 days in February of
last year. The February 2016 DOM was at a mid level
compared with February of 2015 and 2014.

Selling Price per Square Foot

The Selling Price per Square Foot is a great indicator for
the direction of Property values. Since Median Sales
Price and Average Sales price can be impacted by the
'mix' of high or low end Properties in the market, the
selling price per square foot is a more normalized
indicator on the direction of Property values. The
February 2016 Selling Price per Square Foot of $292
was down 6.9% from $314 last month and down 14.1%
from 340 in February of last year.

Selling Price versus Listing Price Ratio
Selling Price vs Original Listing Price
The Selling Price vs Original Listing Price reveals the
average amount that Sellers are agreeing to come down
from their original list price. The lower the ratio is
below 100% the more of a Buyer's market exists, a ratio
at or above 100% indicates more of a Seller's market.
The February 2016 Selling Price vs Original List Price of
82.4% was down from 97.1% last month and down from
98.5% in February of last year.
