I always tell clients that real estate moves slowly. We are seeing similar numbers in statistics as we have in past months, but anecdotally, we have been able to get some great deals for buyers on properties recently, suggesting that pricing could be softening, but we haven’t seen the trends appear yet in the statistics.

Number of Sales

September had 129 sales, only two less than August’s 131. Staying pretty steady.
