Sacramento DataQuick Stats for May 2009

June 18, 2009

From the Sacramento Bee ( updated article ): Sacramento County showed one of the biggest improvements regionally, with prices for existing homes alone climbing a dramatically higher 9.4 percent – from $160,000 in March and April to $175,000 in May. But that was still 22 percent below the May 2008 median of $225,000. DataQuick analyst Andrew LePage attributed the abrupt May rise to a sales mix reflecting fewer hugely discounted bank repos and more higher-priced homes. “It’s not home appreciation,” he said. “It’s just getting back to a more normal distribution of sales across the home price spectrum.” Still, he said, “It could be that we’ve seen the lowest median in Sacramento County.” Statistics by county Statistics by zip Other Central Valley counties [pdf] Also: Sacramento area misses move-up homebuyers — they’re staying put
