Below is a breakdown of closed and expired home listings across York County to understand what’s selling, what’s not, and why. This quarter’s numbers show a clear picture that buyers remain active but selective, and strategic pricing continues to play a major role in how quickly and successfully a home sells.

How Did Homes Perform Compared to List Price? Among the 578 closed listings this quarter:

  • 184 homes (32%) sold over list price
  • 115 homes (20%) sold exactly at list price
  • 279 homes (48%) sold below list price

Nearly half of the homes on the market this quarter did not sell at their asking price!

Homes That Didn't Sell: Expired Listings

In addition to the 578 sold homes, 102 listings expired this quarter without selling. These are homes that didn’t attract a successful offer in their listing window, often due to being overpriced, market timing, or presentation issues. This is a key reminder that simply listing a home doesn’t guarantee a sale and that experience and strategy matters.

Coastal vs Inland

To make sure we had enough data for each group we categorized “Coastal” as homes sold within 20 miles of the coast. We've analyzed how homes in the coastal vs. inland areas of York County performed this quarter. This is Based on pricing outcomes, days on market, and final sale prices.

  • Homes in both regions follow the same pricing pattern: Overpriced homes take longer to sell and often close for less.
  • Coastal homes command higher prices overall, but that comes with longer market times when pricing is off.
  • Inland properties are selling faster with less DOM. This is most likely due to the lower price point compared to coastal homes.
