ST. CLAIR SHORES MARKET REPORT FOR JUNE - HOMES 
- There were 56 home sales that closed in June
- The average list price was $113,254
- The highest list price was $299,900 & the lowest was $29,900
- The average sale price of those 54 transactions was $107,992
- The average total days on the market was 203
- 56 homes went under contract and are marked pending for the month of June.
Of those 56 closed transactions, 19 were bank owned & there were 3 canal front homes that closed.
If you've seen my previous monthly market reports, the bank owned homes have made up 50% of the monthly sales, sometimes a little higher. Only 34% of Junes sales were bank owned homes! The average sale price is up just over $1,000 and sales continue to be steady. All of these are signs, however small, of a recovery, in my humble opinion.

Mike, it's interesting to me that condos seem to be selling for more than single family homes. My guess is that maybe the housing stock in the single family category is a little older and funkier than the condos.
Pat - yeah, I know it is kind of strange, however there are not that many condos in St. Clair Shores and if you get a few of the higher end ones with lake views, that accounts for higher price than single family homes.
As a Saint Clair Shores residence, this is good information to have. Thanks for the breakdown!
Jared - you are very welcome! I put out these reports every month for the Shores. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
