How to read the latest gap between asking and closing.
Pricing in Exeter, RI works best when I keep the recent closed level in front of me. Last month, the median sold price was $675,000 and the median list price was $749,000, so I would not guess where the market wants to land.
Last month, the median sold price was $675,000. That gives me a clean baseline for judging whether a home is priced to attract serious attention or asking more than recent closings support. The $749,000 median list price shows the other side of the equation. In Exeter, RI, I would treat that as a sign to stay intentional about positioning rather than assuming a higher ask will do the work on its own. Review the closed number first. Compare every ask to that level. And if the gap feels wide, decide early whether you want to test it or correct it before momentum slips.
