Learn moreA real, disclosed internal tension in the data
Delmar's $320,000 median sale price ran essentially flat year-over-year, even as its price-per-square-foot figure jumped a cited 46.2% -- a real, disclosed tension this record attributes to Delmar's genuinely thin transaction volume rather than a single clean trend (base record).
Genuinely affordable relative to Delaware statewide
Delmar's cited housing figures run well below Delaware's own $410,192 statewide average home value, with one source citing 39% below that source's own national baseline (base record).
A real, disclosed slowdown in days-on-market
Homes took approximately 70 days to sell in the most recent period, up from an implausibly fast 2 days a year earlier -- a real, disclosed figure this record flags as likely reflecting a thin prior-year sample (base record).
