It marked the 17th straight month of double-digit growth. While prices continued to rise, sales slowed, with 5,085 homes sold throughout Metro Detroit in July 2014, compared with 5,283 homes sold in the same month last year. Realcomp defines Metro Detroit as Wayne, Oakland, Macomb and Livingston counties.

Average days on market for homes fell to 40 days last month, from 58 days in July 2013, and marked the quickest pace of sales so far in 2014.
