Last month Arlington real estate prices were up 3% from April 2009; May activity shows another increase from last year. Overall, the Arlington condo market is up 1% in average net sale price, while townhouses increased 4% and single-family detached properties increased 5%. Days on the market decreased for all markets: 30% for condos, 26% for townhomes, and over 63% for detached properties. Of the 282 sales in May, 12 were short sales and 11 were bank-owned properties, making just over 8% of the market “distressed.”
Selling at higher prices faster? True for most of Northern Virginia, especially Arlington County.
