Choosing your asking price deserves more than a quick comparison with a townwide number. I would start with recent sales of similar homes, then work through what makes your property different with you.
For Auburn Hills single-family homes, condos, townhouses and apartments, September 2026 sold listings had a median sold price of $280,000. The median list price for active listings on the last day of September was $278,950. Months Supply of Inventory was 2.2 months, calculated by dividing the count of listings active on the last day of the month by the rolling 12-month average of newly pending listings. Asking prices describe listed homes, while sale prices describe completed sales, so these figures do not establish a negotiated discount.
Your asking price should reflect comparisons with similar homes rather than simply match either townwide price. Starting with an ambitious asking price requires weighing your preferred outcome against the possibility of needing a later revision. I would give completed sales and competing listings separate roles in that discussion.
Gather details about your home's condition, improvements and unfinished repairs so we can assess relevant differences. Review recent sales of similar homes with me, focusing on property type, size, condition and features. Compare competing asking prices separately, then decide what buyer feedback would justify revisiting your price.
