Valentines Day 2018 and 4th Quarter 2017 Statistics

The 2017 statistics paint a favorable portrait of the Shelter Island real estate market with: 62 transactions totaling $123,636,299 and a median price of $852,500, representing a 2.08% increase to the 2016 annual total of $121,106,996.

Because of the time it takes the County to record sold transactions, many entities that report on sales statistics often do so with incomplete information, which can confuse buyers and sellers. The good news is that Shelter Island real estate is doing well.

Like 2016 and 2017, 4^th quarter 2017 sales were strong–with 31 transactions totaling $50,916,799: 17 inland home sales of $16,900,899; waterfront sales of $31,865,000 and vacant land sales of $2,150,900.
