As the Verona real estate market recovered from the recession, listing prices began to move up and the number of listings experiencing price cuts began to move down. That’s meant more listings in the $500,000 price range and, this weekend, three new listings in the $600,000 range–two of which have been substantially or entirely renovated. The five new listings this weekend are matched by five open houses, but, more unusually, six listings with lower prices. There have been many weeks in recent months when the listings moved to contract so fast that there have been no price changes at all.
Here’s what’s happening in each category, from lowest priced to highest:
