Two homes closed between October 8 and October 13, $1.12 million in volume, at a median of $215 a square foot. List dates are the listing contract dates in the MLS export.

Two more October closings were reported to the MLS after last week’s export: 10 Pineside Lane, closed October 5 at $1,325,000, and 219 Yam Gandy Road, closed October 6 at $585,000. Both closed before this week began, so they are counted in October to date below, not in this week’s two.

The number nobody quotes

Most headlines about this island quote the median sale price. Since January that number has been as high as $1,079,500 and as low as $710,450 by month, the low being October to date.

The median price per square foot over the same months: $293, $300, $306, $287, $289, $318, $292, $287, $295, and $264 in October to date. The high month is 20.5 percent above the low one.

The monthly median sale price ranged from $710,450 to $1,079,500, a spread of $369,050. The monthly median price per square foot ranged from $264 to $318, a spread of $54. On individual homes the figure varies more. This week’s two closed at $197 and $233 a square foot.

January 1 through October 13: 182 closings, $190,502,278 in volume, an $875,000 median and a $1,046,716 average. Median days on market rounded to the nearest day.

What changed this week

Last week, ten homes closed. This week, two: one on October 9 and one on October 13. October to date is now ten closings, a $710,450 median and $264 a square foot. Last week’s issue showed six; the difference is this week’s two and two closings from October 5 and 6 that were reported after last week’s export.

5 Magnolia Crossing asked $674,900 and closed at $671,000 on October 13, or 99.4 percent of ask. The MLS records a list date of September 2. Built in 1988, 2,875 square feet on 0.50 acre.

262 Wiley Bottom Road asked $549,000 and closed at $450,000 on October 9, or 82.0 percent of ask. The MLS records a list date of August 20. Built in 1979, 2,290 square feet on 0.57 acre.

Not every home is in the MLS. The Landings Real Estate Company also holds office exclusives — homes for sale on this island that are not in the MLS and cannot be advertised. I can show you one that matches your criteria.

Where the market stands today

68 homes are active inside the gates as of October 13, at a median asking price of $844,500. 17 more are active contingent and 12 are under contract. The October 7 export counted 66 active, 18 active contingent and 13 under contract. This week’s export carried active, active contingent and under contract listings only, so withdrawn and expired are not counted this week.
