The Reno/Sparks Association of Realtors (RSAR) on June 10 released its May 2017 report on existing home sales in Washoe County, including median sales price and number of home sales in the region.
“Historically, during the peak listing months, May, June and July, new listing inventory outpaces sales,” said John Graham, 2017 RSAR President and Realtor with Re/Max Premier Properties. “This year, new listings and sales are tracking at nearly the same pace. This means new listing inventory is being quickly absorbed as sales.“
