By Linda Ball • November 16, 2010 4:10 pm

Mercer Island seems to buck the norm when it comes to the real estate market.
Despite a down month in home sales in King County as a whole compared to last year, sales of homes on Mercer Island for October remained even. October 2010 statistics indicated 25 closed residential sales here; one more than October 2009.

This is compared to King County overall with 1,309 closed sales in October 2010, down by almost 26 percent from 2009.
