The average residential sale price is sitting at $328k (up from $312k last month). Single family homes are at $367k and condos at $$253k (both up significantly from last month).

Obviousy the market has stopped retreating, but how long will it last? Generally sales and prices peak in April, May or June each year. Prices have either hit bottom, or a false bottom – only time will tell.

Have a great long weekend!
