With the spring housing market underway, UrbanTurf is taking its annual look at the neighborhood markets around the DC region. Today, we head to American University Park.
Here is a statistic that may tell you everything you need to know about the upper NW housing market of AU Park: nearly every house sold in the neighborhood this year went for above the original asking price. This is the case despite home prices rising nearly 19% year to year. Home sales are down notably in the neighborhood in 2022, like many other places in DC, and that is likely attributable to a paltry three-week supply of homes on the market.
