I normally do monthly market updates on the Elk Grove real estate market, but thought it appropriate this month to give you an update on the Sacramento area as a whole and then broken down into regions, starting with Elk Grove of course.
Currently, we have 799 active single family home listings on the market in the Elk Grove area (zip codes - 95624,95757 & 95758), of which 86 are Bank Owned or REO listings, 190 are Short Sale listings, 413 are Short Sale Contingent, leaving 110 "regular" listings. August 2008, we had 1191 active listings on the market in the Elk Grove area, so are listing inventory is down over 32% from this time last year! We currently have 512 pending sales in Elk Grove and 259 closed sales last month! And the median sales price in Elk Grove last month was $230,000, the same as it was in June 2009, but down from $270,000 in July 2008.

Thanks. Very good info. I wonder if anyone had this kind of info for either Placer or Nevada County? Maybe Lincoln?
Rick - I'm not sure. I have been keeping stats for the past couple of years in the Sacramento area and have found it's really useful in my business. I would think there must be someone in Placer or Nevada County that watches the statistics as much as I do.
