Beyond Real Estate

Is it just me, or does it seem like higher priced homes are selling faster than those in the median price range?

Up in my neck of the woods, we have several newer developments where homes are priced at or above $650,000 and several where homes are in the $300,000 range. Yet, it seems like those large, fancy ones are selling better.

I wonder if it’s because people are tired of living in sardine can neighborhoods? Or is it because those folks with enough money to be considered “well-off” aren’t having as much financial crunch as those average folks?

Any thoughts? I’d love to hear what you think.
