Cornwall home prices continue steady climb in late summer

With three transfers in September and three in August Cornwall’s real estate market shows no sign of slowing down. Since May, median prices have continued to hover over $1 million with a cost per square foot of over $400. Inventory continues to be flat with fewer than 10 houses listed for sale each month since December 2022. Half of the properties sold in August and September were purchased for less than $500,000. At the end of October only six homes were listed for sale and five of them were asking more than $1 million.
