The chart provided by Affinity Valuation Group, an appraisal company, shows the trend line of average sale price per square feet sold in Saline over the last two years. As you can see the trend line shows prices trending from just under $110 per square feet to about $114 over the last 24 months.

The list prices were from $23,700 to $849,900. The highest sale price was $790,000; average sold price for the year was $261,070.
