Jefferson County Housing Market Report

Louisville home sales chart and Louisville home prices chart for Jefferson County for the 12 months ending December 2019

Looks like December rebounded in a big way. Home sales for the month just barely missed matching last year. 867 homes were sold during the month compared to 892 the previous year for a 2.8% decline. Not bad.

When we take a look at prices we see a decent jump. While the median home sale price in November was $180,000, one month later that number is $189,900 good for an almost 10k increase.

Now let’s check out home real estate performed in your home’s area.

Craziest chart for the month of December is this one! I can’t really explain the incredible drop in sale prices except to think new construction homes are only selling at the low end of the price spectrum.
