A total of 423 units sold in Guilford County in October 2014 and 414 sold in September 2014.

“We have had ten months of price increases since January 2014 and seven months of quantity gains since April 2014 indicating a stable market,” said Marian Stafford, president of Greensboro Regional REALTORS® Association. “Interest rates are at record lows and more product is coming on the market since sellers are listing their homes as prices are rising.
