Uhland: How List Prices Compare to Final Sale Prices

In Uhland, the gap between asking price and final sale price has narrowed slightly over the last six months. The median close-to-original list ratio stands at 91% across 83 closed sales in the rolling period ending September 30, 2026. This metric measures how closely homes sell to their original listing price, serving as a direct indicator of pricing accuracy and negotiation leverage for buyers and sellers. ALEX Intelligence analyzed the relationship between original list prices and final sale prices to determine this ratio. The data shows that 90.4% of these transactions closed below the original list price. While this indicates that most homes still sell for less than the initial ask, the trend suggests a shift toward more realistic pricing strategies compared to the prior six-month period. The median close-to-original list ratio dropped 1.5% from the prior period and is down 1.7% compared to the same window last year. Simultaneously, the share of homes selling below original list price decreased slightly by 2.7% versus the prior period but rose 4.3% compared to last year. This suggests that while fewer homes are significantly underpriced relative to their initial ask, the market remains competitive enough that nearly all sales involve some negotiation against the starting point. The median sale price for these 83 properties was $231,990, with a median price per square foot of $146. As the ratio fluctuates, it reflects the dynamic between buyer demand and seller expectations in this specific market segment. Understanding this ratio helps stakeholders gauge whether current listings are likely to sell at or near their asking price. Want a closer look?
