This page tracks what homes in Waterford Lakes actually sold for over the last twelve months, how long they took, and what moved the price. It is built from 5 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.

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 4 sales, closed at 99.4% of asking8 days
Reduced at least once 1 sales, closed at 97.6% of the reduced price187 days
Sellers who priced correctly and held their number went under contract in a median 8 days. Sellers who had to reduce took 187 days and still closed at 97.6% of their already reduced price, after a typical cut of $32,500. Opening high costs time and money, in that order.
Seller concessions
60%Of sales included a seller credit
$1,000Typical credit when there was one
3 of 5Sales 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 4 sales80%
Cash 1 sales20%
Cash was 20% 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.

About this data. Source is the Stellar MLS feed for Waterford Lakes in DeLand, Volusia County, covering closed sales from 12 September 2025 through 7 September 2026, refreshed monthly and current as of September 2026. Prices are net of seller concessions, so they reflect what the seller actually received rather than the headline number. One record was excluded as an off-market transfer rather than an open market sale. Data believed accurate but not guaranteed; listings and closings change daily.
