The table below shows the 2015 4th-quarter median sales prices for houses throughout the Reno and Sparks, Nevada metropolitan area, broken out by zip code. The table compares 2015 4th-quarter data to the same period from 2014. The zip codes are sorted by percent change in sales price, in descending order.
It should be noted, three of the zip codes had very few sales (single digits) during time periods reported. Therefore a meaningful conclusion regarding the percent change in median price cannot be drawn. For example, zip code 89501 had only one house sale in Q4 2014 and only three sales in Q4 2015; therefore the 98 percent increase in median sales price is not accurate.
I have denoted these three zip codes with an asterisk.
Regarding the other zip codes the one that came out on top is 89512 (north Reno) with a whopping 34 percent increase in median sales price — Q4 2015 compared to Q4 2014. This finding is consistent with the results seen when breaking out percent increase by MLS Area.
Coming in 2nd-place is zip code 89503 (northwest Reno) with a 23 percent increase.
