What do you think about the Charlottesville housing market? Do you think it is improving?  Betsy Gunnels and her real estate team took a closer look at the area’s real estate market and ran a 90 day comparison between 2010 and 2011. The good news is that there is a 19% overall increase in under contract homes, pending homes and sold homes in the Charlottesville area. Unfortunately Fluvanna County is the only area lagging behind, with a 14% decrease.

Below is a detailed comparison of each county.

  • City of Charlottesville +30%
  • Albemarle County +28%
  • Greene County +12%
  • Fluvanna County – 14%
  • Louisa County +12%
