With the New Year closing in....lets see what sold in Westerleigh http://bestplaces.nydailynews.com/neighborhoods/westerleigh ...
A North Shore community in Staten Island...with strong community ties abound... along with a vibrant history. Reported from the Staten Island MLS a total of 118 homes sold in Westerleigh since January 1,2011 http://mls.sibor.com/SIBRReports/ListitLib/show_report.aspx?ID=2511754797 the average selling price was $433,263 and the lowest was $235,000...average days on the market were 125 days.

Out of the 118 homes sold in 2011.... 75 of them were 1 family detached homes that sold http://mls.sibor.com/SIBRReports/ListitLib/show_report.aspx?ID=2511756575 and in comparison to 2010 a total of 109 homes sold....with 74 of these homes being 1 family detached that sold. http://mls.sibor.com/SIBRReports/ListitLib/show_report.aspx?ID=2511756596
In my opinion if there is a certain area people want to live...there is consistency in sales, even in a depressed market. Everything in real estate is relevant .What is important to you when purchasing a home? A particular lifestyle...easy transportation to work and school...recreation and affordability?
