Menlo Park, July 2026

Sample page.
Town-level figures, single family homes.
Your page carries your street.

This is the page my sellers see before anything is listed. The band is what buyers paid this month for a Menlo Park home, read five ways. Where a home sits inside the band decides how it should be priced. That's a judgment about the street and the house, made from the closings around them.

Where a home sits inside the band

Under the band

Smaller than the 2,259 sq ft average, original condition, or a busier street. Buyers compare these on price per foot, so the list price has to read correctly against $1,565 before anyone visits.

Price to the foot, then let condition set the discount.

In the band

Near the average size, updated, on a quiet block. This is where the 105% happens: buyers compare on condition and presentation, and several of them arrive the same week.

List at the market, on the calendar, and let the offer date do the work.

Above the band

The larger lot, the newer build, the corner nobody drives past. Comparables thin out up here, and the July median tells you almost nothing about the house.

Price to the last three closings that resemble it.

What happens next

  1. 1Your comparablesThe recent closings within a half mile that resemble the house, the actives it will be shown against, and the pendings that will close before it does.
  2. 2Your positionWhich of the three bands the house sits in, and the two or three facts about the street and the property that put it there.
  3. 3The numberA list price, and the range buyers will read it in. The two differ, and the gap between them is the strategy.
  4. 4The calendarPreparation, photography, launch day, the offer date. Every step has a date before the sign goes up.
