Average and Median Home Price of Saratoga Condos Sold

When trying to understand Saratoga neighborhood home values for condos, the first and most often real estate trend looked at is either average or median condo sales price. The average price can be pushed up by a particularly expensive condo being sold. Much less often an especially low price for one or more condos can push the average price down. By looking at both average and median price a quick judgment can be made about any unusually high or low prices

Price Per Square Foot for Saratoga Condos Sold

The sales price of a Saratoga condo is affected by its size. Looking at price per square foot gives a partial adjustment for differences between condos. Furthermore if you look at the average size of a Saratoga condo sold you will see that it varies with time. Part of the variation is due to the random nature of which condos are being sold but the trend is for an increase in size with time because when a house is replaced with a newer condo, the newer condo is almost always larger.
