Amador County - A 14-month streak of year-over-year gains in home sales ended in June, when the number of sales fell to fewer than in June of 2008. In total, homebuyers in the Sacramento closed deals on 3,758 existing and new homes in June, the most since last October, according to MDA Dataquick, a research and statistics company. The region’s monthly sales have yet to reach 4,000 this year. Dataquick credits a rise in median priced home sales and diminishing sales of lower priced bank repos. Amador County had 31 sales compared to 30 in May. The county’s median price, $210,000, was 18.9 percent below June 2008. Story by Alex Lane This email address is being protected from spambots.
