Pinehurst Real Estate – First Quarter 2010 Real Estate Report

Images of Pinehurst, southern pines, whispering pines and seven lakes

The Pinehurst/Southern Pines NC real estate market continued to rebound in Q1 of 2010 from the lows experienced in late 2008 and 2009.  The Quarter was better than Q1 2009 and better than the immediately preceding Quarter (Q4 of 2009).  However, sales still have not returned to peak levels in 2005 - 2007.  In our opinion based on the raw data that we have reviewed, it will take a several more years for the Moore County Real Estate Market to achieve the record levels that we saw in 2005 through 2007.
