Home sales in North Liberty in 2014 were down 12% compared to 2013. This is quite surprising data for one of the fastest growing towns in Iowa. 525 homes sold in North Liberty in 2014 compared to 598 homes sold in 2013. In July I looked at the mid year trend for home sales in North Liberty and the market was hot with a lack of inventory of homes on the market. That changed slightly for the latter part of the year with more inventory and home sales in North Liberty up in September, October and November.
Unlike Coralville or Iowa City, inventory in North Liberty is looking pretty good at the moment, with just as many homes on the market now as there were in July and yet home sales were down again in December. If you’ve got a house to sell in North Liberty how the market is trending is very important to you. Considering the conflicting data in this market report, before you put your house or condo on the market this spring you should talk to an agent who’s on top of the market to see exactly what’s going on in your neighborhood.
