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

Sellers who priced correctly and held their number went under contract in a median 54 days. Sellers who had to reduce took 123 days and still closed at 91.5% of their already reduced price, after a typical cut of $100,999. Opening high costs time and money, in that order.
Seller concessions
14%Of sales included a seller credit
$19,985Typical credit when there was one
3 of 21Sales 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 12 sales57%
Conventional 8 sales38%
Private 1 sales5%
Cash was 57% 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.
