This covers zip code 44113, which includes Ohio City and Tremont. These 'first six months of 2007' stats represent homes listed with area brokerages.

• There are 93 single family homes for sale in zip code 44113
• There are 74 condos listed for sale in this zip code
• One condo and 4 single family homes are 'contingent' and waiting to go pending to close
• 21 single family homes are under contract and waiting to close
• 51 condos are pending as well, and waiting to transfer title and close

• The average time on the market for these homes was 108 days
• Average Ask Price was $194,425
• Average Sale Price was $192,967
• Average cost per square foot was $92

**There are 93 homes and 74 condos listed for sale right now, as I stated; that is quite a bit less than the West Town and West Park area stats showed in my previous post. Zip code 44113 has not seen the huge wave of listings (and maybe less foreclosures?) than some other areas.

Cuyahoga County Real Estate Sale For June 2007 - Includes Ohio City and Tremont

I have no idea how we have managed to already find ourselves at the end of June, but so be it. Sales in zip code 44113 are still intriguing; condos and town homes are continuing to be the top picks in this zip code. Here is what happened in June:

16 Properties had 'activity.' 3 of them are contingent, meaning they went under contract and have not closed yet. Of these three, all are attached dwellings (condos or town homes). The asking price for these three homes was $161,104, $184,900 & $204,750. (We won't know the sale prices until they close).

13 Properties Sold. 3 of them were single family homes. 10 of them were Condos/Town Homes. The Average Ask Price was $184,115 and the Average Sale Price was $179,408. The average price per square foot was $99. Again, since only three of these properties were single family homes, the average sale was for a 2 BR, 2BA unit with 2,272 square feet. And a two car garage.

There are a total of 174 homes on the market in zip code 44113. The breakdown is 92 single family homes and 82 condos. Some of the other stats interest me as well.

Of the 13 homes sold, none were sold for more $225k so I used that as a benchmark to do some sleuthing. There are currently 97 homes on for sale here with an asking price higher than $225k. I talk to myself (well I'm the only one here) and ask if maybe the price points are a tad high for the pocketbooks? Look at the average stats on these 97 homes listed for more than 225k:

Days on The Market: The 13 homes sold still averaged a bit more than three months. That's it. These homes have an average of 264 days on the market. And they are not sold yet. Most of these are gorgeous new construction homes so that explains a bit about this next stat, but still: there are some that have been on the market for more than 500 days.

The average cost per square foot on the sold homes was $99 yes? Well these homes average $182 a square foot. And the average square footage is 1,932, when the homes that sold for less money averaged over 2,000 square feet of space per home. My new mantra is lower price points please. Peace Out - 3C

Ohio City, Tremont Homes Sold in March 2007

This is for all of zip code 44113. The single family homes that sold were town homes (single family because they are owned in full by the owners, and are not condominium complexes). One was in Clarence Court and four were in Bergen Village.

There were Five single family town homes sold between the prices of $218,233 and $$465,873. The average length of time they were on the market was 187 days. The average Ask Price was $348,360 and the average Sale Price was $375,173 (new construction, so with add-ons or upgrades, the prices can go up). The five town homes averaged 2 Brs, 2 Baths and a 2 car garage.

There were two condominiums sold in March between the prices of $107,000 (for one in Grove Court, near the West Side Market) and $547,500 (in Stonebridge). They were on the market for 91 days or three months.

To put things in a bit of perspective: there are 70 condos for sale in zip code 44113 and 92 single family homes.
