Wheatlands Community · September Market Report
Wheatlands September 2026 Market Report
Three detached-home sales, a steady closing count and a clear reminder that one high-end sale can reshape a small monthly average.
Wheatlands community guide.
Quick answer: Wheatlands recorded 3 closed sales in September 2026, exactly matching September 2025. The average sale price was $650,000, but the prior-year average included a $1,075,000 closing that had no comparable counterpart this September.
Market at a glance
Closed-sale measures cover September 1–30. Active and pending counts reflect the October 2 snapshot.
Why the average price moved
The closing count stayed the same, but the mix within those three sales changed.
One high-end sale lifted last year’s comparison
September 2025 included one $1,075,000 home along with sales at $650,000 and $710,000. September 2026’s three sales were grouped much more tightly between $625,000 and $695,000.
The 19.9% drop in the monthly average should not be read as a 19.9% change in every Wheatlands home’s value.
Pricing and market time
With only three closings in each September, individual properties have an outsized effect on averages.

Practical guidance for Wheatlands homeowners
Use community statistics as a starting point, then narrow the analysis to the property type and features that match the home.
For homeowners considering selling
- Use same-type comparisons. September’s $650,000 average came only from five-bedroom detached homes.
- Review launch price carefully. Two of the three September closings had reduced asking prices before selling.
- Plan for market time. The three sales averaged 51.3 days, and none sold within the first seven days.
- Document finished space, lot characteristics, upgrades and ownership costs so buyers can compare the home accurately.
For homeowners considering buying
- Compare the nine active listings by property type before using a community-wide price benchmark.
- Review price history and recent same-type sales. September closings averaged 94.2% of original list price.
- Include association fees and maintenance responsibilities when comparing Wheatlands condos with detached homes.
- Use inspection findings and the home’s condition to guide negotiations rather than assuming every listing follows the monthly average.
Bedroom, basement or open recreation area?
All three September 2026 sales were already five-bedroom detached homes, so this month’s data cannot isolate the value of adding another bedroom versus creating a larger open recreation area. Before renovating, compare matched Wheatlands sales with similar above-grade size, basement finish, condition and lot. That narrower review can help determine whether a legal bedroom, finished basement or flexible recreation space better fits the home and likely buyer.
Wheatlands market questions
Short answers based on the September report and October 2 inventory snapshot.
Did Wheatlands sales activity change from last September?
No. Three homes closed in September 2026, matching the three closings recorded in September 2025.
Why was the average sale price lower?
September 2025 included a $1,075,000 closing. The three September 2026 sales were clustered between $625,000 and $695,000. In such a small sample, one high-end sale can materially change the average.
How much inventory was available?
The October 2 snapshot contained nine active listings and two pending sales. Dividing active listings by September closings produces approximately 3.0 months of inventory.
Does the $650,000 average apply to a Wheatlands condo?
No. All three September 2026 closings were single-family homes, while three of the nine active listings were condos. Condo sales should be evaluated with other condos and their associated monthly costs.
What should I review before making upgrades?
Start with recent sales that closely match the home’s property type, size and existing finished space. This month’s three five-bedroom sales do not provide a controlled comparison of added bedrooms, basement finishing or recreation-room layouts.
