Median prices rise in Washington

WASHINGTON — The Town of Washington and Village of Millbrook continued to be active with seven properties transferred in the month of November. Transfers below $500,000 accounted for four of the sales while there was only one sale over a million. The median price for a single-family residence rose again to $712,000 for November although still below Covid frenzy levels when median prices almost reached $800,000.

Demand for million-dollar properties continues to be weak with 14 listed for sale for an average of 245 days; however, four over a million-dollar properties are pending sale and an additional two have already closed in December. Just before the beginning of 2025 there are still 32 residential properties listed for sale — similar to last month with 14 houses reducing their listing price.
