This page tracks what homes in University Manor actually sold for over the last twelve months, how long they took, and what moved the price. It is built from 3 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.

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.

What homes sold for in University Manor

$266,000Median sale price
$147Median per square foot
41 daysMedian days to contract
3Homes sold in 12 months

Sale prices ran from $231,250 to $370,000, which is a wide spread and the reason a single neighborhood median is a starting point rather than an answer.

By size

Home sizeSalesMedian priceMedian $/sq ftMedian days
Under 2,000 sq ft3$266,000$14741 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.

Homes priced right sold far faster

Median days to go under contract. Shorter is better.

Never reduced 2 sales, closed at 87.3% of asking26 days
Reduced at least once 1 sales, closed at 84.4% of the reduced price48 days

Sellers who priced correctly and held their number went under contract in a median 26 days. Sellers who had to reduce took 48 days and still closed at 84.4% of their already reduced price, after a typical cut of $24,000. Opening high costs time and money, in that order.

Seller concessions

33%Of sales included a seller credit
$10,000Typical 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

Cash 2 sales67%
Conventional 1 sales33%

Cash was 67% 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.
