Elm Grove Real Estate Market Data...

Like most communities across the nation, Elm Grove's real estate market has been challenging the last several years. Property values have been negatively affected by the current downturn in real estate. Here are some graphs and analysis that can help try and quantify the changes and explain the current market conditions.


Elm Grove Homes Sold by Year
This graph shows the number of single family properties sold in Elm Grove for each of the last 5 years. Click the image at left to load it full size.



Elm Grove Average Sold Prices per Square Foot
This graph shows the average sold price per square foot for single family properties sold in each of the last 5 years. These calcualtion can give you a simple snap shot of how the market is doing, but could be deceiving in cases where fewer sales of vastly differing type properties skew numbers artifically from year to year.

Elm Grove Individual Sold Prices per Square Foot
Although there is a huge variety in size, type and quality of construction for homes in Elm Grove... it is possible to look at some more detailed indicators to try and determine if prices are flat, increasing or decreasing. In my opinion one of the best for this purpose is the price per square foot of individual sold properties. This graph shows each of the single family properties sold over the last five years in Elm Grove charted by sold price per square foot and by date. To make the trend more clear I've added a polynomial trendline.

Elm Grove List Price/Sold Price Ratios
One way to judge the market is to compare the selling prices for each sold property to it's last listing price. The farther the average sold price/list price ratio moves from full price (1.00), the more tilted towards a buyer's market it likely is. This graph shows the single family properties sold over the last five years in Elm Grove charted by that ratio. Again I've applied a polynomial trendline to try and show how the average has moved, and in particular dropped in the last year.

Elm Grove Sold Price per Square Foot by Type and Year
To try and show more detail on how the current slow down has affected the different sectors of the Elm Grove real estate market, I've prepared this graph showing average sold prices per square foot for each of four simplified property type categories over each of the last 5 years. I've broken the sales into groups by 1 Story, 1.5 Story, 2 Story and all Multi-Level type properties. Click the image to view it full size and more details.
