Is Canyon Creek a seller’s market?
Over the past year, yes, for the neighborhood as a whole. Homes sold at 97.8% of their original asking price, above the 97% line my rule uses. The typical sale went under contract in 14 days.
The year before read the same way, so this is a steady pattern for Canyon Creek. The softer spot is the current listings, half of which have cut after a long time on the market.
Which Canyon Creek price range is busiest?
The $700,000s, by a wide margin, and it closed as a seller’s market for that range.

Sell now, or wait?
The record favors listing a ready house now.
- Sell now if your asking price is based on this year’s closed sales, not last year’s.
- Sell now if your home is in the $700,000s, where buyers paid close to full asking.
- Wait if the house still has 1990s finishes that the newer Four Points homes nearby do not.
- Wait if a listing near you has been sitting at a high price, until you know why it has not sold.
Your situation
Canyon Creek homes that are priced right sell quickly and near asking, while the listings that have lingered are the ones that cut. The difference is mostly the opening number and the condition.
For your house the question is which side of that split it would land on, against the few homes listed near it.
