This page tracks what homes in Forest Heights Unrec actually sold for over the last twelve months, how long they took, and what moved the price.

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

33%Of sales included a seller credit
$17,000Typical credit when there was one
1 of 3Sales 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 2 sales67%
Cash 1 sales33%

Cash was 33% 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.
