How Beacon Calculates Market & Listing Metrics
Beacon uses comparable listings to provide a snapshot of how similar homes are performing in the market.
Metric | How it’s calculated |
Median days to sell | The median number of days it took sold comps to sell. Beacon looks at the days on market for each sold comp, sorts them from lowest to highest, and uses the middle value. |
% of list price at close | The median percentage of the original list price that sold comps sold for. If a home had price reductions before it sold, Beacon still compares the sale price to the original list price. |
Median days on market | The median number of days that active comps have been on the market. Beacon looks at the days on market for each active comp, sorts them from lowest to highest, and uses the middle value. |
Avg. price reduction | The average total percentage reduction from the original list price to the current list price for active comps that have had a price reduction. Each home is counted once, regardless of how many times its price has been reduced. Homes with no price reduction are excluded. |
Days vs. median sold | The difference between your listing’s days on market and the median days to sell for sold comps. A positive number means your listing has been on the market longer than the median sold comp; a negative number means it has been on the market fewer days. |
