What’s Really Happening in Banning’s Premier 55+ Community

šŸ“‰ Market Snapshot

  • Median Listing Price: $378,500
  • Median Sold Price: $345,000
  • Price Per Sq Ft: $259
  • Days on Market: 70 (up slightly from last year)
  • Sale-to-List Ratio: 97.06%

Sun Lakes remains a balanced market, even with a slight dip in prices. Homes are selling just below asking, but lifestyle continues to drive value.


šŸ˜ļø What’s Selling

  • 2-bed, 2-bath homes around 1,100–1,400 sq ft are moving fastest
  • Larger homes (2,600+ sq ft) still command premium prices—up to $604,900
  • Homes with updated kitchens, golf course views, or proximity to the clubhouse sell quicker

šŸ› ļø Turn-Key Is the New Must-Have

Today’s buyers want ease, comfort, and instant lifestyle. Turn-key homes—those with fresh finishes, updated kitchens, and thoughtful staging—are getting the most attention.

Thinking about selling but your home needs a little love?
Ask Michelle about her concierge-style listing support:

  • āœ… Renovate now, pay later
  • āœ… Stage now, pay later
  • āœ… Upgrade now, pay later
    You pay nothing—zero, zip, nada—until close of escrow.

Michelle helps sellers unlock their home’s full potential without upfront costs. It’s seamless, strategic, and seller-friendly.

Sellers who highlight these features are seeing stronger interest and better offers.ā€
