Summer Slowdown: A Look at the DC-Area Housing Market, By the Numbers

Call it the dog days of summer or a reset, but there was little doubt that the housing market in the DC region slowed down in July. Home prices rose at their slowest level in months, as inventory increased and home showings fell about 30% year-over-year. Consequently, the number of days that listings are spending on the market went up in almost every local jurisdiction.
Below, UrbanTurf plucked out some of the more telling statistics from the market last month.
