Zillow's average home value ($158,032, up 7.8% YoY) and Redfin's median sale price ($191,000, up 15.8% YoY) both ran RISING, while cited median list prices ran $210,000 in August 2026 (down 11% MoM, down 10% YoY) versus $231,000 in July 2026 (down 1% both) -- a real, disclosed contradiction this record does not resolve (base record).
A plausible small-market explanation
This apparent contradiction plausibly reflects genuine small-market volatility -- a thin monthly listing sample -- rather than one clean, resolvable trend (base record).
Genuinely affordable relative to national benchmarks
All cited figures run well below the roughly $408,776 national median home value, keeping Buckhannon genuinely affordable by national standards regardless of which local trend proves more representative.
