True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Over the 12 months ending 2026-09-20, 10 recorded sales closed at a median of $249,300, $168 per square foot, a median 25 days on market, sellers accepting 100% of original asking. At the median price and Effingham County's 2025 rate of 24.05 mills, annual property tax runs about $2,400.
Westwood Heights is pricing around $259,700 at the median, with price per square foot near $174 — a level that points to condition and square footage doing most of the work on value here rather than any shared amenity package, since none shows up in current MLS listings for this community.
A median of 22 days on market against 11 closings in the current window is a small, fast-moving sample. That combination tells buyers not to expect much room to sit on a decision, and tells sellers that a correctly priced, well-presented listing is not waiting long for an offer.

Who Westwood Heights is best for.
Best for
- Buying based on the home itself — layout, lot, and condition — rather than a community amenity list.
- Moving decisively once terms are right, given a median time on market of just over three weeks.
- Comparing price per square foot closely, since $174.26 is the benchmark to weigh any listing against.
Probably not for
- Wanting a maintained clubhouse, pool, or gated feature as part of the purchase — none show up in current MLS data.
- Needing a large closed-sales history to model pricing trends before committing.
- Expecting a wide, quotable price range to negotiate against — only the median figure is established here.
The Westwood Heights buying strategy.
If we were buying in Westwood Heights today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Westwood Heights.
What's actually moving the numbers
With a median price of $259,700 and price per square foot at $174.26, Westwood Heights lands in a straightforward, mid-range price-per-square-foot tier for the area. Because there's no clubhouse, pool, or gate factored into that number, the spread between homes is more likely to come down to lot size, finish level, and square footage than to a shared feature everyone is paying into.
The 22-day median days-on-market figure, paired with 11 closings in the tracked window, is a modest but telling sample size. It suggests a market where reasonably priced homes move at a brisk pace rather than lingering, but it's not a high-volume enough window to draw hard conclusions about seasonal swings — buyers and sellers should treat each new listing here as its own data point rather than assuming a fixed rhythm.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Westwood Heights. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
