South Kingstown RI Real Estate Market September 2015

 
The South Kingstown RI real estate report for single family homes showed a fall slow down in home sales by 25% over the prior month.  It is not unusual for a slow down in southern RI real estate to occur as we head into fall.   Single family homes sold here have shown a 5%  increase in home sales and a 6% increase in sold home values January 2015- September 2015 compared to the real estate statistics for January 2014- September 2014.  It is still a healthy real estate market here where the key to home sales is pricing well to what the market says a home is worth.
