What the numbers say
The median sale price was $367,000, down 4.6% from a year earlier. The prior period’s figure was 38 days on market. 41 homes sold in the period, enough volume that the median is a fairly stable number. Your own price still comes from the sales most like your house.

What that means for a divorce sale
At 24 days on market, Cottage Grove is a steady market. That’s long enough to show the house properly and short enough that an extra month of carrying costs is the realistic thing to plan for, so agree in writing who pays the mortgage until closing.
