Southold Town  

Southold continues to show the foundations of a strong real estate marketplace.  The median home price continues to remain steady and has increased in some hamlets.  This is a reflection of higher end homes being offered on the market and purchasers see the value in home ownership on the North Fork.  Land preservation has limited the over development and maintained the personality and vistas that the North Fork has become known for.

Includes Laurel, Mattituck, Cutchogue, New Suffolk, Peconic, Southold, Greenport, East Marion and Orient.

Summary

When you review the historical data over the past 10 years you can see the general increase in home values.  Orient shows more of a fluxuation because of the value of the range of homes selling. Some years more multimillion dollar waterfronts sell than the following year. This inconsistency can be seen from 2004 through 2008.
