Sale-to-list price ratio calculator
How close to the asking price are homes really selling? Paste recent sales, one per line, and see each ratio, the median and how many sold over or under list.
What the ratio means
Sale-to-list ratio = sale price ÷ list price × 100. At 100% the home sold at its asking price, above 100% it sold over, and below 100% under.
- Final vs. original list: a home that sold at 99% of its final price may have sold at 95% of its first price after two reductions. Comparing both shows how much the market pushed back on the first price.
- Median, not average: one bidding war at 110% can lift an average a lot. The median shows the typical sale.
- Same area, same type, recent: use closed sales of similar homes from the last 3 to 6 months. A ratio from another price band or neighborhood can mislead.
How to use it with a seller
The ratio shows how buyers in this market respond to asking prices, not what a home is worth. A high ratio can mean homes were priced right, priced low on purpose, or that the market is hot. Pair it with price per square foot from the comps and with months of inventory.
Arithmetic on the prices you enter, not an appraisal or a forecast. Use your MLS's closed sale data.
