Rocky River: 9 Single Family Homes sold this year. (Actually ten are listed but one home listed over $500k is showing as 'sold' for $2500.00, seemed unusual so I am not including that sale here). Sale prices ranged from $153,000 to $560,000. The average number of days on the market before going under contract was 76. The average ask price was $279,600 and the average sale price was $264,722.

The one constant in home buyer tastes seems to be at least 3 bedrooms with a 2-car garage. I'll feature more communities later this week.
Remember Big Yellow Taxi by Joni Mitchell, where she sang 'they paved paradise and put up a parking lot?' Here is the Counting Crows version.
