This page tracks what homes in Terra Alta actually sold for over the last twelve months, how long they took, and what moved the price. It is built from 11 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 September 2026.

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

Reduced at least once 5 sales, closed at 95% of the reduced price51 days
Sellers who priced correctly and held their number went under contract in a median 38 days. Sellers who had to reduce took 51 days and still closed at 95% of their already reduced price, after a typical cut of $19,900. Opening high costs time and money, in that order.
Seller concessions
36%Of sales included a seller credit
$6,425Typical credit when there was one
4 of 11Sales 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 6 sales55%
FHA 3 sales27%
Conventional 2 sales18%
Cash was 55% 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.
