North Arlington Real Estate Market Stays Strong in June

As part of my monthly real estate research, I look at sales statistics for key areas of Northern Virginia. I see what the sales trends are, and what the current inventory looks like.

This month I took an in-depth look at recent sales activity in North Arlington. 90 single-family homes sold North of Arlington Boulevard in June.

Here are the sales figures:

Market Insights

The Arlington housing market stayed strong in June after a big May. In North Arlington, the average sale price was 11% higher than in May 2013.

The high end of the market was particularly strong in June, with 32 home sales over $1,000,000 compared to 17 home sales over $1,000,000 in June 2013.

On average, the sale price was HIGHER than the list price for homes sold in June. This means that many homes received multiple offers, which pushed the price above asking price in many instances.

Current Inventory

North Arlington real estate inventory has been increasing steadily all spring and summer. Here’s what the current inventory picture looks like as of the end of June:

– Homes less than $1.1 Million: 4.2 months of inventory

– Homes $1.1-1.6 Million: 4.6 months of inventory

– Homes $1.6 Million & Up: 6 months of inventory

Six months of inventory indicates a balanced real estate market; less than 6 months indicates a seller’s market. These numbers indicate that North Arlington continues to be a strong seller’s market in all but the very top end of the price range.

It’s still a great time to sell in North Arlington!
