“Too few” means under 3 sales in twelve months — counted, but not given a median, because one house is not a market. "On market" is a count of what is listed or in escrow right now across all brokerages; no listing is displayed here.

In Menlo Park, the first two weeks are the sale

Every sale grouped by how long it took, against the price it first asked. Not against a reduced price — against the number it launched at.

Homes here that sold in the first week finished +8.0% against their opening price. The ones still on the market after sixty days finished −8.0%. That gap is not explained by price — the slow sellers are not the cheap ones. Whatever is going to happen, happens early.

Every sale: what it fetched, and how it did

One dot per home. Across is the result against the price it first asked. Up is what it actually sold for. Red beat its asking price; charcoal did not.

The dashed lines are the two medians — $3.50M and +2.6%. A dot to the right of the upright line beat the price it opened at; a dot above the flat one sold for more than the typical home here. What the corners tell you is whether the top of Menlo Park behaves like the rest of it.

What the year actually says

Every figure below is measured against the price each home first asked, not the price it had been reduced to. That is the difference between a market that looks generous and one you can price against.

The line sits at $7M

Everything below $7M behaves the same way, whatever the price. Above it, the market inverts.

First askedSalesAgainst first askReached it
Under $3M 140 +5.6% 77%
$3M – $4.5M 78 +0.8% 64%
$4.5M – $7M 64 +0.1% 61%
Over $7M 28 −1.0% 46%

Below $7M a seller can expect the market to find the price. Above it, the market does not correct upward — the first number has to be right.

One story or two

Two-story homes carry a higher price and a larger footprint — but they are bid up less, which is the $7M line showing through.

If this is your street

The map says what sold. It doesn’t say what yours would.

Menlo Park is not one market and pricing it as though it were is the most common and most expensive mistake made here. Maggie will tell you which of the things you could do to the house is worth doing, and which is not.
