Rehoboth homes sell below asking on average as the spring price peak fades
The median sale price of $699,617 is still up 3.8% from a year ago, but it is nearly $69,000 below its May peak, and more homes are waiting for buyers.
Rehoboth sellers are taking less than their asking price again. Homes that sold from July to September closed at 98.5% of list on average, down from 100.8% in the same months of 2025, according to Redfin, a national real estate brokerage. Just 35% sold above asking, down from 47.5%.
Homes in Rehoboth sold for a median $699,617 in the three months ending Sept. 30, 2026, up 3.8% from the same months a year earlier, according to Redfin. In all, 41 homes sold, and the typical one went under contract in 35 days. Zillow puts the typical home in town at $669,422, up 4.5% from a year earlier.

Month by month
Each row is a three-month window, so each month counts in three rows. That smooths out the swings a town this size would show month to month.
