Residential Home Sales

Date Updated: 05/09/2011

Information and Real Estate Services (IRES) groups types of real estate based on use and style of the unit. The two groups shown here are Residential and Attached homes. Residential homes are single-family houses and residential acreage properties that do not share a common wall with another unit. Attached homes are properties that have shared walls or other structural components between units (i.e. condominiums, townhouses, or half of a duplex). Unless indicated, all housing data includes both types of homes, residential and attached, and both types of sales, resale and new construction.
