Source: OneKey® MLS residential closed sales with a Chester mailing address, July 1 to September 30, 2026, checked October 2, 2026. Sale-to-list is total sale prices divided by total final list prices, so earlier price cuts aren't reflected. Off-market sales are not included.

What the Numbers Mean for Sellers

  • The middle of the market was strongest. All 10 homes that sold between $400,000 and $599,999 closed at or above their final list price.
  • Higher-priced homes needed more negotiation. The 6 sales at $800,000 and up closed at 91.8% of final list price, with a median of 66 days on market.
  • Location within Chester matters. A Chester address can be in the Village of Chester, the Town of Chester or the hamlet of Sugar Loaf, and school districts vary by address. I price against the right comparable sales, not just the ZIP code.

How I Help Chester Sellers

  1. Pricing review. I compare your home to recent sales of similar homes in the same municipality and school district, then adjust for condition, updates and lot.
  2. Preparation plan. We agree on which repairs and updates are worth doing before listing and which aren't.
  3. MLS listing and marketing. Your home is listed in OneKey MLS, where buyers' agents across the region search.
  4. Offers and closing. I help you compare offers by price, financing and terms, and stay with you through inspection, appraisal and closing with your attorney.
