Another 40 properties totaling almost $27,000,000 are under contract nine of which are over $1mil with one at $3,200,000.
Land sales continue to make a come back as mild temps and low snow amounts have allowed for better viewing coupled with lower single-family inventory. An impressive 28 parcels totaling $6,032,000 have sold so far in the 1st quarter of 2015. That is up 91% from the same period last year. Although prices have not recovered as much as we’d like it is very clear that land is in much higher demand.
