CURRENT MARKET CONDITIONS

As of April 2026, the West Chester School District is a seller’s market. With 1.49 months of inventory, a median list price of $1,039,000, and homes spending a median of just 12 days on market across West Chester, East Goshen, West Goshen, and East Bradford Township, demand significantly outpaces available supply. These conditions reflect a competitive environment where limited inventory and rapid absorption rates continue to favor those listing properties in the district.

★★★★★

“Between our purchase and sale, we worked with the Cyr team for over a year and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The Cyr team is professional, kind, patient, and passionate about what they do. Their care and expertise made trusting them through this intense and emotional process easy, knowing that they would guide us to the best possible outcome for our family. Vince and the team kept us informed at every step of the way: totally responsive, always willing to talk to us, educate us- even when it was just to soothe our anxieties. They supported us and pushed us through frustration when the market was tight, and never let us settle for less than our original goals. We now live in our forever home, and it’s better than we could have ever imagined. With their action plan, we were able to sell our old home in days; and when we came upon unforeseen roadblocks to closing, the team truly went above and beyond to make the process as smooth as possible for both us and the buyer. The Cyrs care about their clients on a personal level. We were able to see that through their continued engagement with past clients- even meeting some at client appreciation events! When someone is a part of your life so intensely for a period of time, relationship and trust is so important. The Cyr team combine professional expertise with heart, and total belief in the process. Thank you Vince and Jane! “
