This page tracks what homes in Hiawassa Highlands actually sold for over the last twelve months, how long they took, and what moved the price. It is built from 7 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 November 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.

Seller concessions

$8,500Typical credit when there was one
4 of 7Sales 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
Conventional 3 sales43%
FHA 2 sales29%
Private 1 sale14%
Cash 1 sale14%
Cash was 14% 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.

About this data. Source is the Stellar MLS feed for Hiawassa Highlands in Pine Hills, Orange County, covering closed sales from 12 November 2025 through 7 November 2026, refreshed monthly and current as of November 2026. Prices are net of seller concessions, so they reflect what the seller actually received rather than the headline number. One record was excluded as an off-market transfer rather than an open market sale. Data believed accurate but not guaranteed; listings and closings change daily.
