Grounded Perspective
Pricing: Every zip in Cary Core sits within a fairly tight range, though the medians still span $165,000 top to bottom. South Cary/Lochmere (27518) posts the highest average at $1,046,095 on just 22 active listings — a small, premium-heavy pool. West Cary/Green Level (27519) is the volume leader (79 active) and the tier’s price ceiling at an $830,000 median.
Velocity: Lochmere and NW Cary/Preston both clear contract in 9-10 days, among the fastest paces anywhere in this audit. West Cary/Green Level, despite its size, runs slowest at 22 days — still brisk by Triangle standards, but the outlier within Cary itself.
The Bottom Line
184 active against 112 pending. Cary Core is one of the tightest, most competitive tiers in this series — every zip here clears contract in well under five weeks.
