Sales Activity

Another good month for Timbergrove/Lazybrook based on the number homes sold in June.  20  homes sales closed in June with 5 homes going pending sale.  The average days on market for homes sold in June was 76 days.

Active Listings

Inventory levels continue to remain low in Timbergrove/Lazybrook, which is great news for potential home sellers.  When inventory is low (i.e. supply), and demand is elevated, home sellers usually see higher sales prices (i.e. a seller’s market).  At the close of the month, there were only 21 total listings on the market and only 10 new listings came on the market in the month of June.  That means there are a lot of buyers in the market with few options to choose from.

Home Prices

The average price for properties sold over the past 12 months (ending in June 2012) was $299,640.  That’s up 2% from the previous 12 month period (ending June 2011).  Timbergrove/Lazybrook, like most other inner loop area neighborhoods, has been increasing at a moderate pace since 2008.Timbergrove-home
