Hello Kelly,

To add to the other answers, I can get you started receiving what is on the market from our Cincinnati MLS. This way you will see ALL listings on the market in these zipcodes and price range and get updates as soon as they hit the market with New Listings, Price Reductions, ect. If you are interested...email me today to get started. You can enjoy looking at homes at your convenience in your very own Portal. You would no longer have to spend time looking at all the real estate broker websites...MLS is the core of where all listings start. Saves time, gas and leaves no stone unturned this way.

Happy House Hunting!

Good Morning Kelly! You definately have picked the "hot spots"! Walking to the squares, hanging out at the local coffee spots and sushi restaurants. Really awesome neighborhoods....and that's why the Mt Lookout, Hyde Park and surrounding areas have held up a bit better than some other areas of Cincinnati. Now, they've taken a hit, but a smaller percentage. To specifically answer your question: 5/28/06 - 5/28/07, there were 624 sales. Median list $249,900, Median sale $242,250. 5/25/07 - 5/28/08, there were 559 sales. Median list $259,900, Median sale $245,000. In the last year 5/28/08 to date, there have been 465 closed sales....a 159 unit drop in volume! Median list $240,000 (down $9,000) Median sales $233,000 ( down $9,250). At the RealCincy Group....we love stats! Check out http://www.realcincy.com for more! then give me a call!

Over the last two years prices have come down in these areas but not as fast as other areas in greater Cincinnati. Those zip codes have historically appreciated annually. What type of home are you looking for? You can contact me at jdurso@comey.com
