The Reno/Sparks Association of REALTORS® (RSAR) today released its August 2020 report on existing home sales in Reno/Sparks and Fernley, including median sales price and the number of home sales in the region. RSAR obtains its information from the Northern Nevada Regional Multiple Listing Service.

During the month of August, RSAR saw…  

  • A median sales price of $444,900 for a single-family home in the region.
  • An increase topping 20 percent in the median sales price of condos and townhomes
  • Strong sales and price increases in the Fernley area.

“This is one of the best times in recent history for homeowners to list their homes for sale,” said Erika Lamb, REALTOR and President of the Reno/Sparks Association of REALTORS®. “Demand is strong, inventory is low and buyers are eager to take advantage of very low mortgage interest rates.”
