What The Crest homes actually sold for

Every The Crest sale on the MLS® from November 9, 2025 to November 9, 2026, closed or firm and waiting to complete. That's 35 homes. The figures are medians, the middle sale, so one big outlier can't skew them.

Detached house

Median sale price, 16 sales

Median 25 days on the market. Sold for a median 97.2% of asking, and 3 of the 16 went at or over asking.

The first two weeks matter most

100.0%

of the original asking price, for the 15 homes that sold within 14 days

92.1%

of the original asking price, for the 15 homes that took longer than 30 days

On a $1.7 million house, that gap is roughly $134,000. Pricing it right on day one usually beats chasing the market down. Check your The Crest home's price
