This page tracks what homes in Padgett Estates actually sold for over the last twelve months, how long they took, and what moved the price. It is built from 2 verified closed sales in the Stellar MLS feed, not from public estimates. Every figure is a net-of-concessions number, which is explained at the bottom. Updated September 2026.
Read this one loosely. Fewer than eight homes closed here in the last year, so every median on this page rests on a small sample and can swing on a single sale.

Median days to go under contract. Shorter is better.
Never reduced 1 sales, closed at 99% of asking26 days
Reduced at least once 1 sales, closed at 96.2% of the reduced price142 days
Sellers who priced correctly and held their number went under contract in a median 26 days. Sellers who had to reduce took 142 days and still closed at 96.2% of their already reduced price, after a typical cut of $5,100. Opening high costs time and money, in that order.
Seller concessions
50%Of sales included a seller credit
$1,000Typical credit when there was one
1 of 2Sales carrying a credit
A seller credit covers part of the buyer's closing costs and comes off the seller's proceeds, so the headline sale price overstates what the seller kept. Budget for it if you are selling, and ask for it if you are buying.
How buyers paid
Cash 1 sales50%
FHA 1 sales50%
Cash was 50% of purchases. A high cash share means a seller has buyers who do not depend on an appraisal, and a buyer using a loan is competing against offers that can close faster.
