DeForest School District Housing Market | September 2026

September brought sales across a broad range of price points in the DeForest Area School District. According to the supplied MLS sold-property reports, 18 single-family homes and 9 condos closed during September 2026, for a combined 27 sales totaling approximately $13.37 million.

Whether you’re considering buying or selling in the DeForest or Windsor area, these recent closings provide useful context for understanding local prices. Here’s a closer look at what sold and what the numbers mean.

September 2026 Home Sales at a Glance

The median is the middle sale price when all sales are arranged from lowest to highest. The average includes every sale price and can be influenced by particularly high or low sales. Looking at both helps put the month’s results in perspective.

Single-Family Homes: Sales From $319,000 to $857,500

The 18 single-family homes that sold within DeForest school district boundaries covered a substantial price range. The average sale price was $520,100, while the median was $477,500.

Eleven of the 18 homes—about 61%—sold for less than $500,000. Four sold from $500,000 to just under $700,000, and three sold for $700,000 or more. That distribution shows why a single average cannot fully describe the homes buyers purchased this month.

Examples from September’s sold report include:

• 732 S Main Street, DeForest: $319,000; 3 bedrooms and 1,558 finished square feet.
• 613 Greenfield Drive, DeForest: $480,000; 4 bedrooms and 2,433 finished square feet.
• 4416 Eagle Ridge Lane, Windsor: $605,000; 4 bedrooms and 2,711 finished square feet.
• 6551 Wolf Hollow Road, Windsor: $670,000; 4 bedrooms and 2,865 finished square feet.
• 6238 Fountainhead Circle, DeForest: $857,500; 5 bedrooms and 3,128 finished square feet.

These sales reflect different sizes, locations, and price points. A useful comparison for your own home needs to account for condition, age, lot, layout, finishes, and other features in addition to square footage.

Condos: A Wide Range of Prices and Sizes

Nine condos sold within the DeForest Area School District during September. Their average sale price was $445,822, and their median sale price was $469,900.

Condo sale prices ranged from $220,000 to $650,000, with finished living space ranging from 1,132 to 2,796 square feet. Six of the nine sales fell between $450,000 and $650,000, illustrating the substantial range within the local condo market.

Examples include:

• 6828 Parkside Circle, Windsor: $220,000; 2 bedrooms and 1,132 finished square feet.
• 6802 Sunset Meadow Drive, Windsor: $332,500; 3 bedrooms and 1,512 finished square feet.
• 604 Springbrook Circle, DeForest: $380,000; 2 bedrooms and 1,507 finished square feet.
• 4157 Fox Forest Way, DeForest: $469,900; 3 bedrooms and 1,817 finished square feet.
• 6511 Trails Edge Court, Unit 16, DeForest: $650,000; 4 bedrooms and 2,649 finished square feet.

For buyers comparing condos, purchase price is only part of the picture. Association fees, maintenance responsibilities, rules, and the property’s layout also deserve a close look.

Why Were the Median Home and Condo Prices So Close?

September’s median single-family sale price was $477,500, just $7,600 above the condo median of $469,900. However, the average single-family price was $74,278 higher than the condo average.

Those figures describe the particular properties that closed in September. They do not mean that a condo and a single-family home with similar features have nearly identical values. With only nine condo sales, the mix of properties has a meaningful effect on the monthly figures.

What This Means for DeForest and Windsor Sellers

September’s closings provide recent reference points, but the best pricing strategy starts with homes that closely resemble yours. A smaller home, a larger newer home, and a spacious condo can compete in very different segments of the market—even within the same school district.

If you’re preparing to sell, I would use these closed sales alongside comparable homes currently for sale and properties with accepted offers. That gives us a clearer picture of both what buyers have paid and the choices they have today.

These reports do not include days on market, original asking prices, or seller concessions, so they cannot tell us how quickly homes sold or how much negotiating took place. They also do not establish whether prices increased or decreased compared with a previous month or year.

What This Means for Buyers

September’s sales show that buyers purchased properties at a variety of price points within the district. Single-family closings started at $319,000, while condo closings started at $220,000.

These are completed sales rather than homes currently available. Still, they can help frame your search and evaluate comparable properties. Whether you’re looking for your first home, more space, or a condo with different maintenance responsibilities, it helps to focus on the property type and features that fit your needs.
