The number of homes sold across Ohio in October rose from the pace set during the month a year ago, posting a 2.3 percent increase, according to Ohio REALTORS®.

“The strength and stability of the Ohio housing marketplace is evident, as sales activity levels for the year are besting the pace set a year ago,” said Ohio REALTORS® President Anjanette Frye. “In addition to our resilient sales activity, the marketplace is also exhibiting a steady rise in the average sales price – good news for current and would‐be buyers that housing in Ohio continues to be a solid, long‐term investment.”

October’s average home price of $192,062 reflects a 4.7 percent increase from the $183,406 mark posted during the month last year.

Sales in October reached 13,529, a 2.3 percent increase from the 13,226 sales recorded during the month a year ago.

Through the first 10 months of the year, sales activity has improved slightly from the level posted in 2018. Sales from January through October reached 130,326, a 0.4 percent rise from the 2018 level of 129,781 sales.
