This page tracks what homes in Governors Point actually sold for over the last twelve months, how long they took, and what moved the price. It is built from 13 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 August 2026.
What homes sold for in Governors Point
$310,000Median sale price
$211.04Median per square foot
28 daysMedian days to contract
13Homes sold in 12 months
Sale prices ran from $248,000 to $350,000, which is a wide spread and the reason a single neighborhood median is a starting point rather than an answer.
By size
| Home size | Sales | Median price | Median $/sq ft | Median days |
|---|
| Under 2,000 sq ft | 13 | $310,000 | $211.04 | 28 days |
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.
Condition moves the price more than anything else
Median price per square foot by the condition each listing described.
Renovated or updated 5 sales, 34 days to contract$211.04
Sold as is or dated 6 sales, 24 days to contract$213.22
$-2.18More per square foot, renovated over dated
$-3,269On a 1,500 sq ft home
$-5,449On a 2,500 sq ft home
Condition is inferred from how each listing described itself, so treat it as a strong signal rather than an inspection. The two bars above look close because they are drawn from zero; the gap between them is the part worth acting on.
Notice that the dated homes sold faster, in a median 24 days against 34 days. Selling quickly and selling high are not the same thing. Homes needing work are priced to move and are picked up quickly by buyers who intend to renovate, while a finished home waits for the buyer willing to pay for the finish. If you are deciding whether to improve before listing, the price column matters more than the days column.
Homes priced right sold far faster
Median days to go under contract. Shorter is better.
Never reduced 6 sales, closed at 96.1% of asking26 days
Reduced at least once 7 sales, closed at 98.3% of the reduced price41 days
Sellers who priced correctly and held their number went under contract in a median 26 days. Sellers who had to reduce took 41 days and still closed at 98.3% of their already reduced price, after a typical cut of $10,000. Opening high costs time and money, in that order.
Seller concessions
31%Of sales included a seller credit
$6,650Typical credit when there was one
4 of 13Sales 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 8 sales62%
Conventional 2 sales15%
FHA 2 sales15%
VA 1 sales8%
Cash was 62% 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.
