Over the recorded series, Waterford Sound’s median sold price moved from $225,475 (2014) to $369,000 (12 months ending 2026-07-13) — +64% over that span, with every year’s figure from recorded closings, not a model.
The recorded series starts in 2014 at $225,475. The 2020–22 run-up did what it did everywhere — Waterford Sound’s median moved +48% from 2019 to 2022. Against the 2025 peak of $405,000, the current median stands at -9%. Annual sales volume here has ranged from 0 to 40 closings a year (10-yr average 15.4). Small-community medians move in steps, not curves — a handful of unusual sales can swing a year, which is why the sales count sits next to every figure in the table above.
Current asking prices run a median $485,000 against the $369,000 recorded sold median (+31%) — the gap between what sellers hope and what the record shows. The market is carrying about 5.1 months of supply at the current sales pace. Since 2006, 152 Waterford Sound listings were withdrawn, canceled, or expired without selling (2 so far in 2026) — overpricing is the recurring cause statewide. Over the recorded years, an average of 26% of Waterford Sound listings ended without selling (withdrawn/canceled/expired); in 2026 that rate was 22%. Momentum’s market-heat index for Waterford Sound reads 24/100 (computed from DOM, sale-to-list, and absorption; 2020–21 peaked in the 70s here).
For buyers, the same table reads the other way: the sold medians above are what the market has actually been paying — an asking price meaningfully above the recent closed record, in a community absorbing at the rates shown, is an opening position, not a value.
The pattern in the statewide failure data applies here too: homes priced against the latest closed sales sell; homes priced against hope join the 201,552 that didn’t. The table above is the closed-sale record to price against.
