457 homes name a repair in their listing remarks; Knoxville lists 89

For buyers who take on repairs, and investors. Counts of active homes whose own listing remarks name a repair, a condition or a term of sale.

Four hundred fifty-seven active homes have public listing remarks that name a repair, a condition or a term of sale, in the sellers' own words.

By the city each listing gives: Knoxville lists 89, Sevierville lists 26, Crossville lists 24.

Of those 457 homes, the remarks name a foundation in 3, water, fire or storm damage in 1 and "sold as-is" in 271; a home can name more than one.

These notes repeat what the listing says, word for word. They are not an inspection. Ask for one.

In Knoxville the Gazette counts 2,054 active listings; the median asking price there is $400,000, and 57 days listed. 43 cuts to the asking price and one increase were recorded in Knoxville this edition. The Knoxville page lists every home there.

Beside it, Chattanooga has 39 active listings and a median asking price of $365,000, $35,000 lower than Knoxville's. Per square foot the median asks $214 in Chattanooga against $232 in Knoxville, so Chattanooga is lower; the median lot is 0.24 acres in Chattanooga against 0.28 acres in Knoxville, so Knoxville has more land. Also nearby, Maryville has 407 active listings and a median asking price of $450,000, $50,001 higher than Knoxville's. Per square foot the median asks $233 in Maryville against $232 in Knoxville, so Knoxville is lower; the median lot is 0.74 acres in Maryville against 0.28 acres in Knoxville, so Maryville has more land. Every figure is an asking price from the same edition.

For the market as a whole, 12,484 listings are active, and the median asking price is $345,000. Per square foot, the median asks $236. The median home has been listed 80 days. The by-the-numbers page sets out every city, with the charts.
