Eight homes sold in December versus seven in 2010, so the lower average sales price is most likely due to a very large sale in December of 2010, which December 2011 did not have.

The average sales prices for townhouses was up to $300,000 versus $236,000 the year prior, but the year prior only had one attached home settle in that month.

As I mentioned in my post about the October 2011 home sales in Cockeysville, 21030 (which encompasses both Cockeysville and Hunt Valley) does not have many sales each month, so even one or two of the smaller condos or townhouses in Cockeysville instead of a larger Hunt Valley townhouse sale can make a big difference in what the statistics show us.

Here is the detailed report on 21030 home sales for December 2011.

The total sold dollar volume was down over 30%, and the average sales price was down 10%.

Seven houses changed hands, two less than October last year.

The biggest difference is the sales prices for attached homes — down 44.30% to an average of $158,000 vs $285,000 last year.

Cockeysville and Hunt Valley neighborhoods are very different, and Cockeysville has a few condo communities which count in the “attached” home sales statistics. 21030 does not have many sales each month, so even one or two of the smaller condos or townhouses in Cockeysville, versus the larger Hunt Valley townhouses can make a big difference in what the statistics show us.

Total sold volume was down 37.40% to $6,125,080 from a high last August of $9,784,500. It is very interesting, and makes me look at the statistics more carefully, that only two less homes sold (18 vs 20 last year).

This means that higher priced homes moved more last August than this August, as average sales price dropped 30.44% to $340,282 from the average of $489,225. One Cockeysville condo sold for under $50,000, which could have a large part of that % drop.

The good news is that more homes went under contract his August than last year this time, with 14 new pending contracts, and a total of 19 under contract. There are a 101 active homes for sale in 21030.
