The Average Sold Price per Square Footage was Neutral*
The Average Sold Price per Square Footage is a great indicator for the direction of property values. Since Median Sold Price and Average Sold Price can be impacted by the 'mix' of high or low end properties in the market, the Average Sold Price per Square Footage is a more normalized indicator on the direction of property values. The September 2025 Average Sold Price per Square Footage of $1,361 was up 16.7% from $1,166 last month and up 0.6% from $1,353 in September of last year.

This month Sold Price vs. Original List Price of 94% was down 5.1% % from last month and down from 6% % in September of last year.
