Key Findings

  1. $446,000 median sold price is the primary indicator of current market value in ZIP 27713 and suggests recent transaction prices sit modestly above asking expectations in the sample; this represents a representative recent sale level that buyers and appraisers should reference when assessing offers.
  2. $420,000 median listing price alongside the median sold price points to a pricing gap that may signal seller optimism versus realized transaction levels; market participants should price competitively to avoid prolonged exposure given the neutral market temperature.
  3. 52 median days on market implies slower transaction velocity relative to historically rapid cycles and may indicate increased negotiation time or higher sensitivity to pricing; sellers should plan for longer listing periods and buyers may find opportunities to negotiate.
  4. 6.77% current 30-year fixed rates and elevated interest rate pressure are likely constraining buyer purchasing power even as rents remain relatively stable ($1,444 median market rent and flat rent year-over-year), so lenders and investors should stress-test affordability under prevailing financing costs.
