A MESSAGE FROM: Nicole Truszkowski

In the second quarter of 2013, the average sales price increased 13% over the same quarter in 2012. Sales of single family homes rose from 283 to 295.The average list price to sales price discount for all price ranges improved with sales prices reaching 96% of the asking price in the second quarter. The most improved market segment was in the Monterey Salinas Highway corridor, which saw a 28% increase in the units sold, going from 47 properties sold in the second quarter of 2012 to 60 in the second quarter of 2013.
