Welcome to the Trago Realty market update for the highly competitive West Chester Area School District (WCASD) service area. This report summarizes residential sales activity across the townships and the Borough during October 2025, comparing the market's performance to the previous month.

October saw a continuation of robust pricing, with both the average and median sold prices increasing. While total transaction volume dipped slightly, the high sale-to-original price ratio and low median days on market confirm that WCASD remains a strong seller's market.

🔑 Market Insights: Price, Velocity, and Competition

The WCASD market continues its upward trajectory in price, with the Median Sold Price jumping by over $95,000 month-over-month. This suggests a strong concentration of sales occurred in the upper-tier suburban developments during October.

The market remains fiercely competitive, reflected by the 100.00% Median Sale Price-to-Original List Price Ratio. This indicates that the typical home sold this month received its full list price or more. While competition is high, the market is not without its opportunities for negotiation; 62 listings recorded price reductions, averaging 5.73% off the original price.

🧭 Summary & Outlook

The West Chester Area School District market continues to demonstrate intense demand and price appreciation, with median sold prices jumping nearly $100,000 from September to October. While the volume of sales decreased slightly, the speed of the market (Median CDOM of 7 days) and the perfect 100% median sale-to-list price ratio confirms this is still a strong seller's environment.

• For Buyers: Preparation is key. Despite 62 price reductions offering some opportunity, strong, clean offers are necessary for move-in-ready homes in top subdivisions.
• For Sellers: The WCASD is peaking in price, particularly for single-family homes in premier townships like Thornbury and West Goshen. A strategic, market-correct price point will likely result in quick sales and strong returns.
