The Reno/Sparks Association of REALTORS® (RSAR) today released its October 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 October, RSAR saw…
– A 3.4 percent increase in just one month in the median sales price of an existing single-family home in Reno or Sparks.
– Continued strong sales activity as the number of transactions was nearly 10 percent greater than the same month last year.
– Solid gains from the previous year in the median price of townhomes and condominiums across the metro area.
“Residential sales activity in the Reno-Sparks area during October was nearly 10 percent higher than the same month a year ago, and prices continue to rise steadily. Our very strong market doesn’t appear to be slowing down at all as we head into the autumn months,” said Erika Lamb, Realtor and President of the Reno/Sparks Association of REALTORS®.
