The median sale price of home in Contra Costa County last month was $311,000 compared to $235,000 in February 2012. The 32 percent year-over-year increase was the biggest of all nine Bay Area counties, according to figures released Thursday by DataQuick.

DataQuick President John Walsh said it was Economics 101: “If demand outstrips supply in a free market, the price goes up. The last time the number of homes sold exceeded the historical average for a given month was back in 2006. So a lot of demand has accumulated. Now, with a recovering economy, prices still closer to the bottom than to the top, with ultra-low mortgage interest rates and tight supply, the stage is set for price gains. This spring is going to be interesting.”
