Signs of Spring in Twin Cities Housing Market? Not Showing Up in February Data

The Minneapolis Area Association of Realtors just published the Twin Cities home sales data for February and its more sluggish news for homeowners.   Jim Buchta from the Star Tribune has a good summary of the stats in his article here.

  • Median Home Price: $142,500 which was up from the $140,000 print in January, 2011
  • Closed sales fell 1.7% this February compared to last year
  • Closed sales were up 3.9% in February compared to January this year
  • Overall new listings are declining but foreclosures are up

It’s finally supposed to start getting nicer here in Minnesota with the weather – 50 degrees possibly tomorrow.  Perhaps that will bring some buyers out?
