Eleven homes changed hands in Haverford Township at a median price of $485,000, according to Zillow data reported by Patch on Thursday, Sept. 24.

The highest sale in the batch reached $685,000. The lowest came in at $401,099. The largest home sold measured 2,588 square feet.

Those numbers mark a dip from the Sept. 10 and Aug. 12 batches.

A Sept. 10 batch of Haverford Township sales carried a $617,500 median and a $1 million top sale. An Aug. 12 batch posted a $546,000 median with a high of $1.6 million. The latest group's $485,000 median is the lowest among the three most recent rounds Patch has tracked.

The price range also sits well below neighboring Radnor Township. A same-day Radnor batch reported by Patch showed a $1,405,000 median, a $1.85 million top sale and an $805,000 floor.

The local figures land against a cooling national backdrop. U.S. existing home sales fell 2% in August from July to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 3.98 million units, the slowest pace in more than a year, according to the National Association of Realtors (NAR). The average 30-year mortgage rate hit 6.76% the week of Sept. 10, its highest level in more than 14 months, according to the Associated Press.

Despite sluggish sales volume, prices keep climbing. The national median rose 1.6% year over year in August to $429,100, an all-time high for the month based on NAR data going back to 1999. Northeast prices outpaced the rest of the country, rising 4.3% from August 2025.

"It's not a surprise home sales and mortgage rates move in the opposite direction and we have seen mortgage rates rising, rising, rising from February," Lawrence Yun, chief economist at the National Association of Realtors, said in a Sept. 9 Associated Press report on the August sales data.

Heather Long, chief economist at Navy Federal Credit Union, said in the same report: "Americans are hitting the pause button on homebuying."

Haverford Township's $485,000 median tops the national August median of $429,100 but falls short of the township's own $610,000 median from a July batch. The Patch report did not include individual property addresses or sale dates for the 11 transactions.

Northeast home prices rose 4.3% year over year through August, faster than any other region, according to NAR.
