RENO, Nev. — On Dec. 7, The Reno/Sparks Association of Realtors released its November 2018 report on existing home sales in Washoe County, including median sales price and number of home sales in the region.
The median price for the month in Reno for single-family homes was $395,000, a 10 percent increase from November 2017, and a decrease of 3 percent from last month. In Washoe County, the median price was $377,000 for November 2018, up 7 percent from the same month last year, and down 2 percent from October 2018.
That, according to a statement from Doug McIntyre, 2018 RSAR president, indicates that the trend in rising median price is slowing across Northern Nevada, which "can be attributed to the winter season and the increase in interest rates as the Federal Reserve adjusts for inflation."
“All indicators point to a correction in the market as opposed to a real estate bubble," McIntyre stated.
