If one was to judge the Richmond marketplace based on July sales numbers for the West End, the picture would be pretty bleak. Whereas the overall Richmond market saw a 12 % decline in unit sales from June, only the Glen Allen sector of the West End saw a decline this small with its 13 % drop. The West End of Henrico (Zone 22) saw a 28 % drop in unit sales, while the West End of the City saw its sale units halved with a 48 % drop. There is good news though, since the West End is seeing an increasing number of sales at above the $500,000 mark. These up-end sales had been almost non-existent for most of the year.  Here’s are the numbers for the month and year to date.
