Larger homes usually show a lower price per square foot. That is normal and it is why a price per foot taken from the whole neighborhood should never be applied straight to one house.
What a pool is worth here
Homes with a private pool sold at a median $254 per square foot against $242 without one, a difference of $13 per square foot. That comes from 13 sales with a pool and 41 without.
Homes priced right sold far faster
Median days to go under contract. Shorter is better.

Sellers who priced correctly and held their number went under contract in a median 20 days. Sellers who had to reduce took 102 days and still closed at 97.5% of their already reduced price, after a typical cut of $27,500. Opening high costs time and money, in that order.
Seller concessions
28%Of sales included a seller credit
$7,287Typical credit when there was one
15 of 54Sales 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 29 sales53%
Conventional 24 sales44%
VA 2 sales4%
Cash was 53% 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.
