The defining fact here is age. A median year built of 1953, with a range running from 1894 to 2024, tells you two things: much of the stock is old enough that systems, roofs, and foundations deserve a hard look, and there is enough newer construction sprinkled in to widen the price spread considerably. Budget for inspection and, in many cases, for updating older mechanicals. This is not a neighborhood where you buy on square footage alone.

The homestead share, at roughly a third of homes, suggests a good portion of the inventory is held as non-primary residences. For buyers, that can mean more available listings over time and a wider mix of conditions from turnkey to project. For sellers of a well-kept, updated home, that same mix works in your favor, because a genuinely move-in-ready house stands out against a backdrop of older, as-is properties.

In a neighborhood where a 1894 cottage and a 2024 build sit under the same median, pricing and negotiation come down to reading condition correctly. We help buyers separate cosmetic from structural and budget accordingly, and we help sellers position an updated home against the older, as-is inventory that surrounds it. That local, house-by-house judgment is where we earn our keep in Richardson Heights.
