RBI's Detailed Report for zip 20002 shows housing inventory has dropped a remarkable 47.75% -- down from 178 in October of 2011 to 98 in October 2012. Generally, when housing inventory declines buyers must compete for fewer available properties leading to an increase in prices and shorter days on market. As the days on market decreased in October the average sold price in zip code 20002 increased 19.49%.
The Detailed Report also provides a breakdown of sales by property type. The highest sales activity in September was for 3BR and 4+BR townhouses.
