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 43 sales, closed at 100% of asking7 days
Reduced at least once 18 sales, closed at 98.3% of the reduced price74 days
Sellers who priced correctly and held their number went under contract in a median 7 days. Sellers who had to reduce took 74 days and still closed at 98.3% of their already reduced price, after a typical cut of $37,550. Opening high costs time and money, in that order.
Seller concessions
49%Of sales included a seller credit
$8,450Typical credit when there was one
30 of 61Sales 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 44 sales72%
Cash 10 sales16%
VA 6 sales10%
FHA 1 sale2%
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.
