Real Estate Business Intelligence Sales Statistics



For sales statistics in your neighborhood search Real Estate Business Intelligence (RBI). RBI is the research component of Metropolitan Regional Information Systems (MRIS) -- the Washington area's multiple listing service. Just enter your zip code and search.

The latest RBI sales statistics for Washington -- with data through February 2012 -- were released earlier this month. Unlike Standard & Poor's Home Price Index, which reports only single-family home sales on a two-month lag, RBI's methodology reports sales statistics for the past month in specific DC metro jurisdictions, and incorporates all property types including single-family homes, townhouses, condos/coops.

The RBI data shows the following numbers for the city of DC only:


  • Median Sold Price: jumped 10.69% over February 2011 and 6.27% from the previous month
  • Average Sold Price: increased 7.86% last year but dropped 4.79% month before

The latest RBI sales statistics for the entire DC Metro area -- with data through February 2012 -- were also released earlier this month. The RBI methodology reports the following price changes for DC Metro:

  • Median Sold Price: is up 5.97% over February 2011 and 2.55% from January 2012
  • Average Sold Price: increased 3.27% over last year but dropped 2.12% from one month before

RBI defines the DC Metro area to include the following 8 jurisdictions:

  • Alexandria City, VA
  • Arlington County, VA
  • Fairfax City, VA
  • Fairfax County, VA
  • Falls Church City, VA
  • Montgomery County, MD
  • Prince George's County, MD
  • Washington, DC
