WHAT YOU’RE GETTING HERE
This one hits a lot of what buyers are looking for right now:
Updated kitchen with island and coffee station
Renovated bathrooms
New A/C (2024)
New flooring in bedrooms
Popcorn ceilings removed
Outside:
Screened in terrace
Large backyard with fire pit
Room for a pool
It’s move-in ready without being fully maxed out.
WHAT THIS PRICE POINT ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE RIGHT NOW
In the mid $800Ks, most buyers come in expecting they can check every box.
Space, updates, a pool, and something that feels fully done.
From what I’m seeing, that’s not really how it’s playing out.
What they’re running into is this:
Homes that are fully renovated tend to be smaller or on tighter lots.
Homes with more space and bigger lots usually aren’t fully updated.
And if you want both, you’re usually pushing closer to $900K+.
So instead of getting everything, buyers are getting more selective.
Right now, most are prioritizing:
a layout that works
key updates already done (kitchen, bathrooms, A/C, roof)
and outdoor space they can actually use
And they’re willing to compromise on the rest.
WHAT THIS TELLS YOU ABOUT THE MARKET
At this price point, it’s less about finding the perfect home and more about deciding what matters most.
That’s what’s driving decisions right now.
THE TRADEOFF MOST BUYERS ARE MAKING
Instead of paying a premium for everything done, buyers are leaning toward homes where the major items are handled, the layout works, and there’s still room to improve over time.
That’s where a lot of the deals are happening right now.
PRO TIP
If you’re shopping in the $800K–$900K range:
Don’t expect to check every box.
Expect to prioritize.
Because that decision, what you’re willing to give up, is what determines whether you actually land a deal.
FINAL TAKE
This is what $845K looks like right now.
A solid home with space and flexibility, just not everything at once.
