The story in Cary this June is a market that has softened. The typical home value sits at about six hundred thirty-eight thousand dollars, down roughly 2 percent over the past year. That is not a crash, but it is a clear signal that the fast gains have stalled. Look at the listings and you can see why. About 22 percent of homes for sale have already cut their price, so more than one in five sellers started too high and had to adjust. There are around 400 homes on the market, with about 250 fresh listings added, so buyers have real choices. The median home is taking about forty-four days to sell, long enough that overpricing gets punished. And the median list price, near six hundred three thousand dollars, sits below the typical value, a sign sellers are pricing with caution. If you are selling here, price it right from day one. In this market, the homes that sit are the ones that reached.
