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.
Homes priced right sold far faster
Median days to go under contract. Shorter is better.
Never reduced 55 sales, closed at 100% of asking26 days
Reduced at least once 38 sales, closed at 100% of the reduced price108 days
Sellers who priced correctly and held their number went under contract in a median 26 days. Sellers who had to reduce took 108 days and still closed at 100% of their already reduced price, after a typical cut of $14,000. Opening high costs time and money, in that order.
Seller concessions
88%Of sales included a seller credit
$10,000Typical credit when there was one
82 of 93Sales 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
FHA 43 sales46%
Conventional 26 sales28%
Cash 15 sales16%
VA 9 sales10%
Cash was 16% 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.
