Typical asking price
Line every sale up from the lowest price to the highest. The typical figure is the one in the middle — half the sales are above it, half below. It is not an average: one unusually high or low sale moves an average, but it cannot move the middle. That is why the middle is the figure shown. - $759,450

Sold for % of asking price
Each sale's price compared with that home's final asking price, then the middle result. Above 100% means the typical home sold for more than it was last asking; below 100% means less. Seller-paid closing costs are not recorded in this data, so a sale that included them netted the seller less than this figure shows. - 100.0%
- typical sale against its final asking price
-
Typical price per square foot
Each sale's price divided by the living area the MLS records for that home, then the middle result. Living area is not recorded for every sale, and seller-paid closing costs are not recorded at all, so this is a rough way to compare homes of different sizes rather than a valuation of any one of them. - $251

Covers homes with Montgomery addresses: houses, condos and townhomes (land, commercial, multi-family investment and rental listings excluded). "Typical" is the middle value (the median): half the homes are above it and half below. We show it rather than an average because a few unusually high or low sales can pull an average away from the middle; where an average is shown, it is the average of the same sales. A typical value is reported only when at least 5 listings or sales are in the window. "Sold for % of asking price" compares each sale price with that home's final asking price, and price per square foot uses the living area the MLS records — seller-paid closing costs are not recorded in this data, so both figures overstate what a seller actually netted on any sale that included them. "A year ago" is the same 90-day window one year earlier. We show it only where the two windows differ by more than the normal variation between two groups of sales that size — so a figure with no year-ago number beside it means last year's was too close to this year's to tell apart, or last year's window had too few sales to compare — not that it is missing.

These figures are not an appraisal or an estimate of any specific home's value; for a specific home, ask us for a comparative market analysis.

Real estate and homes in Montgomery.
The 45242 market tends to run tight on inventory relative to much of the Cincinnati metro. The housing stock spans a range of ages and sizes, and well-positioned listings generally draw steady interest. For current prices, inventory, and days on market, browse the live home search rather than relying on a fixed figure.
Because supply is often limited, buyers entering Montgomery frequently come prepared to move when the right home reaches the market. We can set up saved searches and alerts so you see new listings as they post.
