Officials with the Greater Louisville Association of Realtors say that members sold 1,477 homes and condominiums in the Louisville area last June, a 26 percent jump from June 2009 sales. The boost in sales was a welcome development for sellers and realtors and marked the twelfth consecutive month of improving Louisville home sales compared to the previous year. Louisville Realtors President Linda Gibson Cecil reported that July’s home sales figures would be the “true test” of how the Louisville housing market is performing. She said that the expired federal homebuyer tax credit program would not have an influence on Louisville homes sold in July. As a result, July’s sales should be a better indicator of the overall health of the Louisville real estate market. The group of Louisville realtors reports that home sales are up 29 percent year-over-year for the first six months of 2010 with a corresponding rise in median sales prices from $129,900 to $135,000 for the same period. Cecil said she expected the tax credit to help June sales, as it did in the previous months, but “I didn’t expect us to be up that much.” If you’ve been looking for Louisville realtors to help you buy or sell a home, you’ve been looking for a Louisville real estate professional with experience, integrity, a proven track record of success and outstanding customer service.
