Homes in Far North Dallas sold at a brisk pace in July. Sales were up by 29%. The average sales price increased 4% but the median price shot up 13%. this large increase in the median sales price is simply more homes in the upper price range selling pulling the median price up.

The number of new listings fell 21% and the active listings also declined by 21%. This caused the months of inventory to drop to 2.1 months.

Pending Sales jumped 26% so we can look forward to a strong August.

Condos and Townhouses:

Condo and townhouse sales were weak in July. Sales were off by 31%. I believe that this decline is primarily due to the extreme shortage of inventory especially in the lower price ranges. The average Sales price rose 12% and the median jumped 25%. As in single-family this increase in the median sales price is caused by more sales in the upper price range.

New listings increased by 7% but the active listings dropped by 33%. This brought the months of inventory down to 1.2 months. It’s just very hard to find a condo or a townhouse in Far North Dallas.

Pending sales were up by 33% so as in Single-Family we can expect a good sales report in August.
