During August of 2011 we saw an increase in total sales of existing condos, townhomes and detached homes posting a 1.98% decrease in detached homes and posted a rather large 14.39% increase in attached (condos, and townhomes) single family properties when compared to total sales of July 2011.

When comparing those figures with those of August of last year, we see a 1.62% increase in detached homes and a 8.89% increase in condos and townhome closings. Median sale prices are still lower from those of August of last year; detached homes at $370,000 and condos and townhomes at $208,000.

As a reminder, the above numbers represent condos and detached homes that closed escrow during the month of August 2011 and have actually been taken of the market during June or July 2011.
