City home sales -- by neighborhood

Live Baltimore Home Center now has 2007 Baltimore City home sales by neighborhood. You can see the numbers HERE.

But wait, you say: Didn't The Sun already sort city sales into neighborhoods? Yes -- but it's still well worth taking a look if you're interested. The datasets are different, that's why.

The numbers I crunched were home sales tracked by Metropolitan Regional Information Systems, which means ones in which an agent is involved. Live Baltimore's numbers come from First American CoreLogic -- sorted into neighborhoods by Baltimore City -- and include all home sales.

I've been once to Baltimore LIve office @ the Charles. The moment I came in and asked about incentives from the city, some hungry realtor jumped over me and suggested we go and see some house of my dreams in my favorite neighborhood. Those with best contacts jumped in there, and got some additional sales.
