Sales totals and sales volume were also down in both monthly and annual comparisons according to the MLS data. In fact, the sales volume was down by more than $5 million, compared to May.

"I would have liked to see some growth in sales and median prices in June," said Ron Wysocarski, Broker and CEO of Wyse Home Team Realty. "But sales and prices were steady compared to last year, and that's still a good thing.

Year-to-date, sales and median prices for the first half of 2019 are nearly level with the first six months of 2018.
