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.

HOME PRICES

The law of supply and demand has a funny way of actually working.  The average home price during the 12 month period ending in May 2013 was $337,653.  That’s up 9% from the same period ending in May of 2012.  If your a regular follower of these market updates, we had predicted for quite some time that prices would eventually move up if tight inventories continued.  Well we are here.  Book it.  Supply and demand is a thing.Timbergrove-home
