Calaveras County, CA — The Calaveras County Association of Realtors (CCAR) reports the number of homes sold in Calaveras County rose by 8.39 percent over last quarter.

CCAR also reports prices on homes sold in the county jumped by an average of 5.5 percent. Another positive number is a decrease in the average days a home is on the market, which decreased by 8.24 percent over last year.

CCAR reports the number of homes for sale dropped by over 17 percent, which they say may have played a role in stabilizing values and increased sales.
