Main Line Real Estate News - Lisa Ciccotelli

🏡📈 MAIN LINE MEDIAN HOME PRICES ARE UP 16% AND BUYERS ARE STILL PAYING ABOVE ASKING! 👀

The September 2026 Main Line real estate market report created by BHHS Fox & Roach reveals encouraging trends for homeowners considering their next move.

✨ THE NUMBERS TELL THE STORY:
💰 $802,500 median sale price | UP 16% year over year
🔥 101% average sale-to-list ratio | Homes sold for an average of 1% above asking
⏳ 10 median days on market for homes sold in September
🏡 136 homes sold | DOWN 25% from August

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR MAIN LINE SELLERS? 🔑
Fewer transactions don't necessarily mean weaker pricing. Buyers are still paying premiums for certain properties, making the right selling strategy more important than ever.

✨ IN TODAY'S MARKET, EXPERTISE MATTERS.

For luxury homeowners across Villanova, Gladwyne, Bryn Mawr, Wayne, Haverford, and Lower Merion, strategic pricing, exceptional presentation, and targeted marketing can make a meaningful difference.
At Lisa Ciccotelli Group, we look beyond the numbers to develop a personalized strategy designed to position your home for success.

THE NUMBERS TELL THE STORY. EXPERIENCE HELPS SHAPE THE OUTCOME. 🤍

📍 CLOSER TO HOME | PHILADELPHIA MAGAZINE 2026

Four Main Line-area public high schools earned spots in Pennsylvania’s suburban Top 10:

🥇 #1 Harriton High School | Lower Merion
🥈 #2 Lower Merion High School | Ardmore
✨ #5 Radnor High School | Radnor Township
✨ #7 Conestoga High School | Tredyffrin-Easttown

🏆 PHILADELPHIA BUSINESS JOURNAL | U.S. NEWS NATIONAL RANKINGS

Two Philadelphia-area public high schools ranked among the Top 20 in the nation!

✨ #7 Harriton | #339 Nationally
✨ #8 Radnor | #341 Nationally
✨ #9 Lower Merion | #380 Nationally

The #7– #9 positions reflect the Business Journal’s regional list, while #339– #380 are their respective national U.S. News rankings.

Even more impressive? 25 Philadelphia-area public high schools made the U.S. News national Top 1,000!
