Chardon, Ohio Market Intelligence August 2026

IF YOU OWN A HOME IN CHARDON, THE AVERAGE SALE PRICE IS NOT THE NUMBER YOU REALLY NEED TO KNOW.

The more important questions are:

What are buyers actually paying for homes like yours?

How quickly are well-positioned homes selling?

Which properties are commanding premiums?

And what separates a $350,000 sale from a $600,000, $650,000 or $900,000 sale?

Our Chardon Market Intelligence | August 2026 looks behind the headline numbers and into the actual residential closings.

For accuracy, this report analyzes properties carrying a Chardon, Ohio 44024 mailing address in the supplied MLS data. Because Chardon mailing addresses can cross township jurisdictional boundaries, individual property characteristics and jurisdiction should always be considered when determining true comparable sales.

Chardon Real Estate | August 2026 at a Glance

23 August residential closings

Approximately $9.08 million in total closed residential volume

20 conventional single-family home sales

2 manufactured/mobile home sales

1 condominium sale

For the 20 conventional single-family homes:

Median Sale Price: $399,500

Average Sale Price: $426,285

Median Days on Market: 10 days

12 of 20 sold at or above final list price

10 of 20 had 7 reported DOM or less

Those numbers tell a much more useful story than a broad Chardon average.

Buyers were active, and correctly positioned homes could move very quickly.

What Did Single-Family Homes Sell for in Chardon?

The 20 conventional single-family homes included in the August analysis produced approximately $8.53 million in closed volume.

The median sale price was $399,500, while the average was $426,285.

But neither number should be used by itself to estimate the value of an individual Chardon property. August sales ranged from older homes requiring improvement to updated residences, acreage properties and homes selling above $600,000.

That variation is exactly why the first step in pricing a Chardon home is identifying the properties that actually compete with it.

Where Were Chardon Buyers Purchasing?

Half of the conventional single-family closings occurred below $400,000, but August also showed meaningful activity at substantially higher price points.

Six homes sold for $500,000 or more. Four sold for $600,000 or more. And the highest sale reached $903,000.

For owners of larger homes, acreage properties and distinctive residences, those upper-end transactions deserve much closer analysis than a blanket Chardon median.

Highest Chardon-Area Home Sales | August 2026

The standout August transaction was 9305 Roryanna Drive, which closed for $903,000 after only seven reported days on market. Even more notably, the home closed $68,000 above its $835,000 final list price. MLS reports approximately 5,251 finished square feet including lower-level space on 3.24 acres.

The next-highest closing was 13160 Stoney Springs Drive at $649,900, matching its final list price. The property included approximately 5.31 acres and more than 5,000 reported finished square feet including the lower level. 12065 Pheasant Court closed for $615,000 on approximately 3.33 acres, while 11379 Woodiebrook Road closed at $600,000 on approximately 2.70 acres. 14170 Radcliffe Road closed at $524,900 after only four reported DOM and offered approximately 4.16 acres.

What do these upper-end Chardon sales have in common?

Acreage is one characteristic that immediately stands out. Each of the five highest conventional home closings in the August dataset involved at least approximately 2.7 acres.

That does not mean acreage has one simple dollar value. But it tells us that land, privacy and setting were present in every one of August's five highest-priced Chardon 44024 conventional home sales.

For sellers with acreage, that is precisely why a generic automated valuation can miss important differences.

Are Chardon Homes Selling Above Asking Price?

Some are, and August produced several strong examples.

Among the 20 conventional single-family closings:

7 sold above final list price

5 sold at final list price

8 sold below final list price

So 12 of 20, or 60%, closed at or above the final asking price shown in MLS.

The median sale-to-final-list ratio was approximately 100%.

But that does not mean every Chardon seller should simply raise the asking price.

Quite the opposite.

Buyers compete when they recognize value.

For example, 140 5th Avenue closed for $265,000 against a $239,900 final list price after only three reported DOM.

8550 Old State Road closed for $460,000 against a $432,500 final list price after three reported DOM. And Roryanna Drive closed $68,000 over its final asking price. These sales are not evidence that pricing high creates a premium.

They demonstrate what can happen when buyers perceive enough value to compete.

How Fast Are Chardon Homes Selling?

The median reported DOM for conventional single-family homes was just 10 days.

Even more telling, 10 of the 20 conventional homes had seven reported days on market or less. That means half of August's conventional single-family closings came from properties that moved very quickly once exposed to the market. But August also included homes with 50, 60, 90 and more than 100 days of reported market time.

That difference is important.

There is no single “Chardon days on market” number that predicts what will happen to your house.

Market time can be influenced by pricing, condition, location, acreage, improvements, floor plan, presentation and how the property compares with the alternatives available to buyers at that moment.

This is why pricing correctly before launching matters.

A seller can reduce a price later. What cannot be recreated is the property's first introduction to the market.

Acreage Is a Major Part of the Chardon Value Conversation

One of the clearest lessons from the August sold data is how much the housing stock varies.

Properties ranged from small residential lots to homes on several acres. That matters because Chardon buyers are not simply purchasing bedrooms and square footage.

They may also be purchasing: Privacy. Wooded surroundings. Usable land. Outbuildings. Scenic views. A long driveway or more secluded setting. Room for outdoor living. Larger garages or workshops. The ability to own a property that is difficult to duplicate.

A seller with a three-acre property should not assume that a nearby home on a small subdivision lot is automatically a good comparable simply because the homes have similar square footage.

The land is part of the property story.

What About Price Per Square Foot?

Price per square foot can be useful, but it is one of the easiest real estate statistics to misuse. Among the conventional Chardon-area homes with reported square footage, August produced a broad range of sold price per square foot.

Why?

Because price per square foot does not adequately account for acreage, condition, finished lower levels, outbuildings, location, age, architectural appeal, updates or the quality of the site itself. A buyer does not purchase square footage in isolation.

They purchase the entire property.

For that reason, we use price per square foot as one analytical tool, not as the answer to what a Chardon home is worth.

Chardon Condominium Market | August 2026

There was only one condominium closing in the supplied August Chardon 44024 dataset.

120 Cider Mill closed for $399,900, equal to its final list price, after 105 reported DOM.

Because there was only one condo sale, publishing an “average” or “median” condominium price for August would add no meaningful market intelligence. One sale is one sale.

For a Chardon condo owner, value should instead be established through the specific community, unit style, condition, location within the development, association structure and the most relevant recent comparable sales.

Manufactured Homes Are Analyzed Separately

The August dataset also included two properties that MLS classified under Single Family Residence but separately identified architecturally as Mobile/Manufactured. Those homes closed for $63,000 and $96,000. The $63,000 property also reported a monthly land lease. I intentionally did not mix those transactions into the conventional single-family median.

Good market analysis is not just gathering numbers. It is knowing which numbers belong together.

What Is August Telling Chardon Home Sellers?

August gives Chardon homeowners several clear signals.

Buyer demand exists. Twenty conventional single-family homes closed during the month represented in this analysis.

Correctly positioned properties can move quickly. Half of those homes had seven reported DOM or less.

Buyers will compete. Seven conventional homes sold above final list price.

Higher-value properties are selling. Six conventional homes closed for $500,000 or more, including four at $600,000 or above.

Acreage matters to the analysis. Land and setting were prominent characteristics among August's highest-priced closings.

But none of those facts tells you exactly what your property should sell for. That requires another level of analysis.

Which Chardon Sold Homes Actually Matter to Your Home Value?

This is where sellers often make mistakes.

The closest sale geographically is not necessarily the best comparable. The home with the same number of bedrooms is not necessarily the best comparable. And the property with the closest square footage may still compete very differently.

When we evaluate a Chardon property, the question is:

Which recently sold homes would the same buyer have considered instead of yours?

That means looking at the entire competitive picture:

Acreage. Condition. Updates. Location. Finished space. Architecture. Outbuildings. Privacy. Neighborhood. Mechanical improvements. Market history. And the alternatives a buyer actually had.

That is the difference between looking up sold properties and interpreting the market.

Own a Chardon Home? This Is the Number You Actually Need.

If you are considering selling, you do not need another website giving you a broad automated estimate.

You need to know:

What would buyers likely pay for your specific property in today's market?

And just as importantly:

What should you do before listing to protect that value?

Before spending money on renovations, choosing an asking price or relying on an automated valuation, we can review your home against the properties buyers have actually purchased.

Among the 20 conventional single-family homes, the median sale price was $399,500.

Yes. Acreage was particularly visible among August's higher-priced closings. The five highest conventional home sales in the dataset each reported at least approximately 2.7 acres.

What is my Chardon home worth?

There is no single Chardon average that can answer that accurately. Acreage, location, condition, improvements, usable finished space, property type and recent competing sales can materially affect value. A property-specific comparative analysis is the appropriate starting point.

Data Source & Methodology

This Chardon Market Intelligence | August 2026 report was prepared from the supplied 54-page residential MLS report. The source contained 26 residential records carrying Chardon, OH 44024 mailing addresses. Three transactions had July 31, 2026 closing dates and were excluded, leaving 23 August closings. MLS classified 22 of those August transactions as Single Family Residence, but two were separately identified as Mobile/Manufactured. For a more meaningful conventional-home analysis, those two transactions were reported separately. One August transaction was a condominium. The conventional single-family statistics in this report therefore use 20 transactions. Sale-to-list comparisons use the final list price shown on the closed MLS record, which may differ from a property's original asking price. DOM represents reported Days on Market. A Chardon, Ohio mailing address does not necessarily mean a property is located within municipal Chardon. Township and school-district information should be verified for each individual property. MLS information is believed to be reliable but is not guaranteed. Properties discussed as notable sales are presented as marketwide MLS data.
