Stanford real estate transfers in July

STANFORD — The price pattern of July recorded real estate transfers in Stanford when only one property out of five sales closed for less than $500,000 is repeated when comparing homes that are currently available for sale in the town. Of the 20 single family homes publicly listed for sale on September 10th only one is offered under $500,000 and ten are over $1,000,000. There is no indication that the real estate market will improve for home buyers and the median price in Stanford of $640,000 continues to rise.

The amount of time it takes to sell a house has continued to fall and is now only 47 days.
