 2017 Home Sales Review For The Cureton Neighborhood In Waxhaw, North Carolina The Cureton neighborhood in Charlotte metro area's Waxhaw continued to see brisk sales throughout 2017. Home prices increased by almost 10% from 2015 to 2016. They were lower in 2017 than in 2016. However, a lot of this can be attributed to the fact that there were fewer new construction sales in 2017 than in the two prior years. New construction sales are typically higher in average price point versus resale homes and thus impact average sales prices in any given year. And the more new homes that sell, the greater their impact on average sale prices. Namely,  In 2015 new construction sales totaled 10 with an average sale price of $536,798 (considerably higher than the overall average for the community). And ... 01/29/2018

 Home sales in the Waxhaw neighborhood of Hunter Oaks during 2017 remained in line with sales of the prior two years... the number of homes sold from 2015 to 2017 stayed steady at 54-55 homes each of these three years. Not much of a change in home prices from 2016 to 2017, but home prices were up versus average prices in 2015. Because Hunter Oaks has such a wide variety of home styles and sizes, home prices can vary from year to year depending on which combination of homes are sold in any given year.  Hunter Oaks remains a hugely popular neighborhood with many homes selling in under 10 days during 2017 -- proximity to Ballantyne and top Marvin schools being two of the reasons this is a perenially in-demand community.  Hunter Oaks Home Sales Review: 2015 - 2017 Hunter Oaks Home Sales Sum... 01/29/2018
