Greater Cincinnati Luxury Market Update – Multiple Listing Service Stats

Stalled Luxury Home Sales
A few months ago I gave you information about the upscale housing market in the Greater Cincinnati area. Those areas included Butler, Warren, Hamilton and Clermont counties. We discussed the Jumbo Mortgage Market, and how tight control on the interest rates for the luxury home market may be slowing the housing market, at the “grass roots” level.
I just put together an update with closed sales stats through November 15, 2009. I thought you might like an update.
| Year | # of Closed Sales |
| 2000 | 118 |
| 2001 | 141 |
| 2002 | 200 |
| 2003 | 211 |
| 2004 | 283 |

It’s possible that once the current 23 pending sales do close, that we the “Over $700k+” sales will not come to the anticipated 138 total. We will just have to see if those homes, in this buyer driven market, that are priced close to the $700,000 list price, do indeed sell over $700,000
