Lapeer County Michigan Home Sales

I searched all of Lapeer County for my sales data and put in a bottom search price of $10,000. If there were any rentals that rented for $10,000 or more it was probably only 1. Doubtful there were any. I only search residential listings in Realcomp II- the local MLS. I did not include vacant land or commercial real estate.

There is a huge variety of homes in Lapeer Michigan from small starter homes at the top of the county, to huge custom homes on large parcels of property in the Metamora Hunt area. There are lakefront cottages as well as lakefront estates. The numbers here are more for comparison purposes.

2022 sales (units) were down 8.7% from 2021 but only down 2.6% in sales volume, due to the increase in sales price. The average sales price in 2022 was 6.2% more than the previous year and up 30.8% ($90,276) from 2018. Even with the increase in interest rates sales prices are still on the rise, houses are still selling close to asking price and selling fairly quickly.

Contrary to popular belief prices are still increasong- the first quarter 2023 prices are up 9.4% from 2022, only up 7.5% from 2021, but up a whopping 21.7% from 2020.

And I'm addressing averages- some houses sell in a few days and that brings down the average sales time. I will be writing some blog posts to address more specifics and the reasons behind them. 

Below is a chart addressing annual sales. Below that I linked an rss feed from my real estate blog- so please check back often.
