Home prices and sales volume in Houston hit records in June 2017, according to data released by the Houston Association of Realtors (HAR). A total of 8,414 single-family houses sold, compared to 7,771 in June 2016, representing an 8.3% increase, and marking the largest one-month sales volume in history. Meanwhile, the single-family home median price was $239,023, a 2.6% increase, reaching another all-time high.
