The median has moved $355,000 since March. The price per square foot has barely moved at all.
One took 234 days to settle for 73 cents on its own dollar. What closed inside the gates, and what it got:
The number nobody quotes
Every headline about this island quotes the median sale price. Since March that number has been as high as $1,110,000 and as low as $755,000 — a $355,000 swing in six months. Read alone, it looks like a market lurching around.
Now look at the median price per square foot over the same six months: $304, $289, $289, $323, $292, $287, and $289 this month. A band of roughly twelve percent, and it ends almost exactly where it started.
That is the whole point. The median tells you which homes happened to sell that month. Price per square foot tells you what buyers are actually paying for space on Skidaway Island. One has been volatile. The other has been remarkably steady all year.
