The Average Sold Price per Square Footage is a great indicator for the direction of property values. Since Median Sold Price and Average Sold Price can be impacted by the 'mix' of high or low end properties in the market, the Average Sold Price per Square Footage is a more normalized indicator on the direction of property values. The April 2026 Average Sold Price per Square Footage of $1,150 was down 12.6% from $1,316 last month and down 4.4% from $1,203 in April of last year.
