How volatile is the housing market? Longleaf Pine REALTORS Association, a local professional trade association, provides local market updates
and data. The data below refers to existing single-family homes in the Fayetteville MSA.
 

The sales price data does not account for sales concessions or down payment assistance. LPR also notes that percent changes use rounded figures, and small sample sizes can make the changes look more extreme.
