The Hook
Something interesting is happening in Saint James right now — and it's a tale of two markets on the same street. Sold homes are flying off in an average of 11 days with a 101.2% list-to-sale ratio, meaning buyers are still competing hard for the *right* product. But 21% of active inventory has already taken a price cut. Pricing still matters enormously here.

The Local Read
Seven new listings hit the market last week with a median ask of $699,000, while the two homes that actually closed landed at a median of $1,562,500 — that gap tells me the high-end segment is clearing cleanly when priced and presented well. I'm seeing it on the ground near the village and along the wooded pockets off 25A: turnkey homes with updated kitchens and curb appeal are drawing multiple offers fast. The overpriced or overlooked stuff? That's sitting, dragging the average DOM up to 76 days and pushing months of supply to 5.5. Smithtown school district is doing its job keeping demand anchored here — but pricing discipline is separating the wins from the waiting games right now.

The Advice Line
If you've been watching Saint James, the window for sellers is still open — but it rewards precision, not optimism. Let's look at your specific numbers before you list — 631-708-4151.
