A suburb of the city of Providence, commuting distance to the big city and top rated East Greenwich schools draws the home buyers here.   This RI real estate market’s strong yearly trend in single family home sales was demonstrated in 2013.   Yet the over $1 million homes continue to sell slowly in this market.  Pricing aggressively is the order of the day for home sellers now.

Let us look at how this East Greenwich home sale market is doing this month:

Active homes on the market: 147 (+13% over prior month)
