Source checked 2026-10-27T06:22:05ZHow RET evaluates properties
The listing facts come from the MLS; RET has not inspected the home. RET compares similar home types, sizes and waterfront settings. Check condition, measurements and any seller credits directly. Asking prices show what sellers want; completed sales show what buyers paid. RET Select also requires a clear reason to choose the home and a current review of its risks. This is not an appraisal or an offer recommendation.
Read the selection standard ↗How It Compares
This home asks about 1.1% less per square foot than the middle price of the similar recent sales. Its asking price is $328 per square foot, compared with $331 across 3 reviewed listing-reported sales from 2025-12-10 to 2026-09-23. Price per square foot divides the price by indoor living area; it helps compare homes of different sizes.
Comparison confidence: Moderate. Some homes differ in neighborhood, age, size or sale date. Condition, renovation and seller credits have not been priced into the difference. This is not an appraisal.
