These homes showed a wide price range, with list prices spanning from $319,998 to $799,000, and an average asking price of $480,469 with a median of $454,999. On the sales side, new construction homes performed consistently, with an average sale price of $479,357 and a median of $445,146, indicating that builders are pricing very close to market value and buyers are responding accordingly.

One of the more notable trends in the new construction segment is the average days on market of 75 days, with some homes selling as quickly as 11 days and others taking up to 236 days to sell. This spread highlights the importance of product type, location, and pricing strategy when it comes to new builds. Well-priced homes in desirable communities are still moving relatively quickly, while others may sit longer as buyers weigh options and compare builder offerings.

Overall, the total sales volume of $18.2M in new construction transactions shows that demand is still present in this segment, even as the broader resale market experiences longer selling timelines. For buyers, new construction continues to offer strong value, customization opportunities, and modern layouts. For sellers and builders, it reinforces the importance of competitive pricing and strategic positioning in a more balanced market environment.
