In part 1 I showed the elevated inventory of houses for sale in Edgewater vs. the declining inventory of condos for sale in Edgewater. As shown in the chart below, the median sale price for Edgewater houses in October was $495K, down 22% from October 2007.

Contrast that with the chart of Edgewater condo median sale prices below where median sale price for October was $209K, only down 4% from October 2007.

With so many Edgewater houses on the market now’s a great time to buy one! I recently helped a buyer negotiate over 9% off the list price of a very nice house for sale in Edgewater. The high inventory of houses for sale wasn’t the only reason I was able to help her save so much on the price, but it helped!
