Choosing an asking price starts with recent sales of similar homes, not a number for the entire town. Your home's details deserve attention, and I'll help you separate useful reference points from assumptions.
For Royal Oak single-family homes, condos, townhouses and apartments, the September 2026 data show a Median Sold Price of $375,000. The Median List Price for active listings at September 2026 month-end was $374,949. The Median Estimated Property Value was $369,260. That estimated value comes from a valuation model and is not a formal appraisal.
Asking prices and sale prices describe listed and sold groups, so their closeness does not establish your home's value. I would treat the estimate as background rather than the deciding factor in your asking price. A useful pricing discussion weighs your home's condition, size and features against completed sales, while considering competing listings separately.
Prepare a list of improvements and any repairs still needed so we can discuss your home's condition accurately. Review recent sales of similar homes with me, noting meaningful differences rather than choosing the highest sale. Compare homes listed for sale separately before deciding where your asking price should start.
