It has been 92+ months in a row that the median price of homes in the 717 area code have increased. The difference in median sales price from just one year ago is +8%.

On the flipside, buyers in the 717 area do have *more* choices than they did last year. There are more homes available. Prices going up, but more homes available. This is not the same in other areas in the Mid-Atlantic region.

What does all this mean? I started helping people buy and sell real estate over 20 years ago. There have been highs and lows for buyers and sellers – but generally speaking they haven’t been as high or low in Central Pennsylvania as they are in many other parts of the country and even within our own state.

Make a move when you want to, not when the talking heads on the TV tell you it is time.
