September Prices Paid for Homes in Haverford and Radnor Townships listed Under $700,000

Solid Havertown House. Updating needs likely  led to extended stay on Market.
Interior of 529 E Manoa, which recently sold for $230,000 after about one year on the market and multiple price reductions. Located near the intersection of Earlington Rd., this 2000 sf, 3-bedroom home was very well cared for by diligent longtime homeowners; however, the location near busy crossroads and anachronistic interior combined for an extended stay on market and eventual less than desired sale price. Restoring hardwood floors may not have upped the sellers final take significantly, but appealing to current buyers' tastes may have trimmed time to sell in half.
