Confusing list prices with sold prices is expensive
You are trying to decide what your home is worth and how to choose an asking price that actually closes. My answer is to anchor to sold outcomes in Latham, NY, because list prices alone do not tell you what buyers ultimately paid.
In January 2026, the typical sold price was $386,500 and offers landed about 100.75% of asking for sold listings single family plus condo/townhouse/apt.. In January 2026, a typical sale took 18 days and supply was 1.26 months. That matters because strong seller leverage still requires credibility buyers have been paying near asking, but only when the asking price makes sense. Some metrics were not reported for this period, but January 2026 sold outcomes provide a clear anchor for Latham, NY. Base your asking strategy on sold behavior, not aspirational list numbers. Use the January 2026 typical sold price of $386,500 as a reality check, then aim for a pricing posture that can still close near 100.75% of asking. Plan your response cadence around the 18-day typical sale timeline from January 2026 so you do not lose leverage through slow decisions.
