Current homes for sale

Live listing results are separate from the closed-sale study above.

For your selling plan, we start with current comparable homes, condition and location. This city median is context, not a price opinion for a particular property.

Among main-floor-primary sales, median calendar days to contract were 22 (timing N=2,357); for the other group, 40 (timing N=1,006). This is an association, not proof that stairs cause slower sales. The earlier main-floor primary bedroom analysis retains its September 26 data.

How to read these numbers

Detailed methodology

Coverage: July 23–October 20, 2026, inclusive. October 21 is the edition date. Closed sales are selected by Closed Date; status exits use Off Market Date. These dates describe the supplied records, not a promise that later entries cannot be added to MLS.

This edition uses all 3,397 supplied closed residential sales across Forsyth, Guilford, Davidson and Davie, including 34 comp-only sales (17 C-COBA and 17 C-COFE). No duplicate identifiers or out-of-window closings were found. October 3 excluded comp-only sales for an edition-specific completeness concern, so the editions are not a like-for-like trend. This file alone cannot establish export pagination completeness.

Timing is calendar days from list to pending. Calculate Pending Date minus List/Marketing Date. Retain 136 valid same-day contracts. Exclude missing dates, pending before list, or pending after closing only from timing, not from other valid metrics. In this file, 34 records have no pending date; none has a negative interval or pending after closing. Timing sample: 3,363. No dates are imputed or repaired. No alternate supplied timing statistic is used.

Sale-to-list is the median of each closed price divided by its positive asking price at contract, multiplied by 100, not the ratio of two medians. Net price reduction is asking price below original asking price among records with both positive prices; it does not count intermediate price edits.

Seller-paid share counts positive reported concession amounts among nonblank nonnegative amounts. Recorded zeros stay in the denominator; blanks are never converted to zero. All supplied closings have an amount, including 1,470 zeros. A recorded zero may mean nothing was paid or nothing was entered. “Median when paid” uses positive amounts only. Displayed dollar amounts are rounded to whole dollars; percentages to one decimal; half-day timing medians are retained.

Status exits use the listing-status records, reconciled against the county status totals, for July 23–October 20, 2026. Filtering removes 79 out-of-window exit records and retains 1,202: 373 expired and 829 withdrawn, including one W-COFE. The ratio is (expired + withdrawn) / (closed + expired + withdrawn), using all supplied in-window closings. It is not an individual home's failure probability or active inventory. Different listing identifiers may represent relistings; no city-level exit rate is inferred.

City groups use the exact MLS City field within the four-county file, not verified municipal boundaries. Dedicated city pages require at least 100 closings. Each statistic is suppressed when its valid sample is below 20; counts remain visible. Price bands use closed price: under $250,000; $250,000 to under $400,000; $400,000 to under $600,000; and $600,000 or more.

Empty columns are documented: Stories, List Type and Prc Chg each have 0 of 3,397 populated values. Stories is absent for the third consecutive weekly pull according to the supplied export history; this file alone verifies only the current absence. Subdivision has 2,754 named entries (81.1%); 643 say None. Gar/Car has 2,559 populated entries (75.3%), and Style has 1,229 (36.2%). None is used for segmentation here. Primary On Main YN is complete, but no one-story versus two-story inference is possible.

These are observed closed-sale results, not a forecast, appraisal or promise about your house. No year-over-year change, inventory, due-diligence fee or earnest-money amount is inferred. No raw listing identifiers or addresses are published.
