WOODBRIDGE, VA. July 25, 2018—REALTOR® Association of Prince William (PWAR) has gathered Prince William County’s most recent market statistics, generated by SmartCharts, an affiliate website of Real Estate Business Intelligence (RBI). The market statistics are gathered through data provided by the Metropolitan Regional Information System (MRIS), which serves as the multiple listing service for Prince William County.
A total of 958 homes were sold in June 2018, a decrease of 7.7 percent compared to June 2017 closed sales. The number of new pending decreased as well by 4.0 percent also year-over-year, from 953 pending to 915. New listings saw a slight uptick of a 0.5 percent increase year-over-year, from 1,215 new listings to 1,221.

According to the June 2018 Home Sales Report released by the Virginia REALTORS®, tight inventory and increasing demand continue to push prices upward. Statewide, this is the 28th straight month that median sales price has risen year-over-year. Despite mortgage rate increases over the past year, financing remains historically affordable and, coupled with Virginia’s low 3.2% unemployment rate and high consumer confidence, continues to encourage market entry.
