Comparison to September 2025

Comparing October’s performance to September 2025 reveals a definitive seasonal shift and a cooling trend in buyer urgency:

• Closed Sales Volume: Sales dipped slightly from 496 units in September to 479 units in October. This gradual decrease is consistent with typical autumn market cycles.
• Price Adjustment: The Median Sale Price softened to $580,000 (down from $599,490 in September). Additionally, the Average Sale Price saw a decrease from roughly $830k to $775k, indicating fewer ultra-luxury closings or a general settling of prices.
• Negotiation Nuance: The Average SP/OP Ratio dropped to 99.21%, signaling that buyers are finding more room to negotiate on price than in previous months. However, the Median SP/OP Ratio holding firm at 100.00% indicates that well-priced homes are still commanding full ask.
• Market Velocity: While the "Days to Sell Average" held steady at 26 days, the Cumulative Days on Market (CDOM) Average jumped significantly to 37 days (up from 26 in September). This suggests that while fresh inventory moves, older inventory is lingering longer.
• Price Reductions: The number of price reductions climbed to 342 (up from 328), with the median reduction depth increasing to 5.34%, further evidence that sellers are calibrating to meet buyer demand.

Observations & Summary

October marked a distinctive shift in the Chester County rental market compared to the previous month. While median rents remained largely stable ($2,300 vs. $2,325 in September), the market velocity has slowed notably. The median cumulative days on market (CDOM) jumped from 28 days in September to 42 days in October, indicating that tenants are taking more time to make decisions and inventory is lingering longer.

Perhaps the most significant metric this month is the Sale Price-to-Original Price Ratio, which dropped to 96.60% (down from 100% in September). This suggests, in some cases landlords are discounting asking rents to secure leases.

Key Takeaways:

• Negotiation Power: The dip in the SP/OP ratio signals a shift toward a tenant-friendly environment where price negotiation is becoming more common.
• Luxury Hold Times: Higher-priced districts like Great Valley and Octorara are seeing significantly longer wait times (78+ days) compared to the county median.
• Inventory Levels: The market currently holds approximately 3 months of inventory, offering tenants more choices than in previous quarters.

🧭 Summary & Outlook

The October 2025 Downingtown Area School District market shows a distinct evolution from September. While sales volume remained consistent (60 sales in October vs. 61 in September), pricing saw a notable increase, with the median sold price jumping to $668,743 (up from $585,000 last month).

However, buyers are taking a little more time to make decisions. The Median Cumulative Days on Market doubled from 7 days in September to 14 days in October. Additionally, the median Sold Price-to-Original Price Ratio dipped to 98.42%, suggesting that while the average sales price is high, some sellers are negotiating slightly off their original list price to get deals across the finish line.

This data indicates a healthy market where premium inventory is commanding high prices, but the "instant sale" frenzy has cooled just enough to give buyers a moment to breathe and negotiate.

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.
