Wasilla Real Estate News presents the statistics for single family residential homes for the Matanuska-Susitna Borough. These statistics are for the last week and include Wasiia, Palmer, and all the communities from Talkeetna to Sutton.
The vast majority of the properties are in the Wasilla area, for example, 10 of the 15 closed sales for this week label Wasilla as the address.
There are twice as many closed sales this week as last. That is a good sign, but the median price of these sales is only $139,900. That is not good news for the 712 homes on the market with a median price of $237,500. It does indicate where the market activity is strongest however.
