| Market Time |

| Selling Price Per Square Foot |

|
|
| Selling Price vs Original Listing Price |
| The selling price vs original listing price reveals the average amount that sellers are agreeing to come down from their original list price. The lower the ratio is below 100% the more of a buyer's market exists, a ratio at or above 100% indicates more of a seller's market. The March 2012 selling price vs original list price of 108.8% was up from 105.1% last month and up from 102.3% in March of last year. |
|
|
