Home sales in Texas increased 0.2% in the third quarter. In Tyler, home sales were up 1.4% to 811. Statewide, Texas home sales maintained the strong pace generated in the summer and continues to stay on pace with last year&#8217;s record breaking home sales. State home sales increased 0.2% year-over-year to 91,248 home sales. In Tyler, the median price of a home rose 2.8% percent to $175,000 in the third quarter. In the state, the median home price increased 7% from last year&#8217;s 3rd quarter to $214,000.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Greater Tyler Association of REALTORS President Claudia Carroll says there are several reasons for Tyler&#8217;s increase. The city has not been affected by setbacks in the oil and gas industry because Tyler has done such a great job in diversifying our economy.<\/p>\n<p>Another reason is because the city offers a great value. In Houston or Dallas, you can buy a 1,500 square foot home for $300,000. In Tyler that $300,000 buys a 3,000 square foot home. <\/p>\n<p>And Carroll says a third reason is we have so much commercial building taking place. She says, people want to be where the action is. <\/p>\n<p>Carroll feels the trend will continue. She says they see no economic indicators that could set us back in the 4th quarter. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TYLER &#8211; Tyler&#8217;s home sales are outpacing state figures.
