Home buyers can’t get enough of Timbergrove and the proof is in the prices. Despite tight inventories, prices had remained relatively steady with only moderate growth in late 2012 and Q1 2013. With so few homes available and so much demand, it was inevitable that prices would really start to boom. And they did. May saw a large number of homes fly off the shelves quickly and for record prices. Check out the details below.
