In Sunset Oaks, homes are selling for nearly their full original asking price. The median sale price reached $270,613 across 42 closed sales in the rolling six months ending October 31, 2026. This represents a 98.6% close-to-original list ratio, indicating strong alignment between listing and closing prices.
ALEX Intelligence analyzed the relationship between original listing prices and final sale prices to determine this metric. The data shows that 66.7% of homes sold for less than their original list price, a significant improvement from the prior six-month period when 85% of sales fell short. This shift indicates a tightening market where sellers are regaining leverage compared to the previous window.
Compared to the same window last year, the close-to-list ratio has improved by 2.8 percentage points. While the median price per square foot dipped slightly by 1.3% from the prior period, it remains 1.9% higher than last year's levels. The market is moving faster as well, with homes spending an average of 18 days on the market, down 60.9% from the previous six months.
This trend suggests that pricing strategies are becoming more accurate in this community. Sellers who list competitively are seeing their properties sell quickly and close near their asking price, while those who overprice may still face extended time on the market or price reductions.
