The following is a monthly market analysis for Birmingham Michigan. It compares only residential homes sold in Feb. 2009 with Jan. 2009 to determine the # of homes sold for the month and the increase/decrease in average sold price. It also distinguishes how many homes were recorded to be Bank Owned/HUD. as opposed to private owned. First figures include private, bank owned and short sales. In the latter part of 2008, Realtors were required to categorize ownership status so figures may not truly reflect the actual number of bank owned Feb. 2008. Birmingham Market Analysis also compares year ending Feb. 2008 to Feb. 2009. To insure that most leases were not included in data, minimum sale price used was $25,000.

Great localism post . Good information for consumers. I hope they will read it and call you to buy or sell Real Estate.
Cathy,
you might want to consider putting your analysis at the top of your post as that's what visitors will read first. Many might not scroll down past the statistics to get to the summary. I'd also hi-lite the analysis and put your own spin on it. That will go farther in getting consumers to identify with you:)
Great post though, keep sharing!
Gita: Thanks for the good wishes about selling more real estate - this post is ranked high if someone types in Birmingham Market Analysis - hopefully people want to keep abreast.
Drew: Thanks - I was just considering that the analysis should be at the top - especially on this one since the market improved this month in Birmingham.
Cathy very nice analysis for the market in Birmingham. I am sure your readers enjoy seeing your monthly reports.
