Median prices also increased over that same period, increasing 0.2 percent to $135,000 in September. Sales have now increased for 14 straight months, and prices have been up the last seven months. The median price rose to $134,700, which is an increase of 0.2 percent relative to September 2011. Wisconsin has seen median prices up now for seven straight months, and year to date, they have grown 1.1 percent.  The state has made progress in terms of reducing its inventory of unsold homes, which fell from 16.2 months of supply in September of last year to 12 months of supply last month.

Mostly I report on the Twin Cities Real Estate market, but what about Wisconsin?  I am licensed in Wisconsin and can help anyone interested in buying or selling in Western Wisconsin!  The Wisconsin market is also picking up just as is the Twin Cities housing market.  The Western Wisconsin region is also experiencing double digit growth rates, with a 14.5% increase in sales for May of 2012 compared to May of 2011!  New job listings are up in Wisconsin as a whole and home inventories are down both helping to fuel the increase in home sales and prices.  For more on the Wisconsin Market click here for a report from the Wisconsin Realtors Association.
