Two homes closed between September 23 and September 25, $1.11 million in volume. One is a 3,655-square-foot single-family home on a corner lot. The other is a 1,536-square-foot end-unit townhouse; the MLS records the water as Lagoon. They are different product types and are not used as comparables for each other. Both closed below their final asking price. Two closings is a week, not a trend. Monthly figures since March are below.

Correction, October 7, 2026. The monthly table on this page first included three sales outside the gates and missed nine closings from early March. The figures above are recalculated from a Hive MLS sold export dated October 7, 2026, counting closings through September 29, 2026. 41 Sparnel Road closed September 28 and was reported to the MLS after this issue’s export; it is now counted in September.
March 1 through September 29: 147 closings, $154,134,998 in volume, an $875,000 median and a $1,048,537 average.

As of September 29, there are 61 active listings inside the gates, at a median asking price of $839,000, and 18 more are active contingent. The September 22 search counted 58 active. Under contract listings were not in this week’s export, so the contingent count is not compared with last week’s combined figure.

Why the McWhorter Drive speed limit changed. Chatham County intended to lower the limit from 50 to 40 mph only between Diamond Causeway and Westridge Road, ahead of a planned traffic signal at Diamond Causeway, McWhorter Drive and Green Island Road. A missing 50 mph sign near Westridge made the lower limit look longer; new signage goes up once utility locates are done (The Landings Association).
