The recent closed mix gives you a better way to compare options
If you are stuck choosing between a few homes, I would narrow the decision by value fit, not by whichever one feels exciting first. In Clyde Hill, WA, recent closings included homes from 1,580 to 7,820 square feet, which tells me the market covers a very broad set of properties.
That range matters because price alone does not tell the full story. Over the last 3 months, the average closed price per square foot was $1,387 and the middle figure was $1,126, so I would compare each option against both the size and the pricing pattern before deciding what deserves a serious offer.
For a buyer, that creates a useful filter. A home with a higher total price may still make more sense than a smaller one if the price per square foot and overall fit are stronger, while a cheaper option can still be a poor buy if the value relationship is off.
Compare homes on total fit and price per square foot together. Keep the recent closed size range in mind while you sort options. Cut anything that does not justify its price clearly. That saves time and protects your position in Clyde Hill, WA.
