Woodhaven is small: 7 houses sold in September, 47 from April through September. Across those six months, more than four in five sold within two weeks, a little over their original asking price. A market this quick decides on day one, so we set the price and have the city's inspection report in hand before the first showing.
Houses that didn't sell
How Woodhaven listings ended
Every house that left the market in the six months to September 2026. 11% came off without selling and hadn't come back.
The houses that stayed off had been on the market a median of 66 days before they came off. The ones that sold took 7 days.
Each house counts once. One that was withdrawn and listed again counts by how it ended, and one still on the market isn't counted yet.
Days on market, month by month
Each point is the median of three months of sales, ending with that month. Woodhaven sells too few houses in a month for one month to be steady.

Before you list in Woodhaven
Book the city's sale inspection first
Woodhaven requires an inspection on every residential sale. Apply no more than 30 days before you list: the form and the $200 fee go to the Building Department, 734-675-4930. The report is good for six months.
If it turns up repairs, the buyer can sign a notarized agreement to take them on, so a repair list doesn't have to stop the sale. The buyer can't move in until the repairs pass a re-inspection.
Look up open permits
An old permit that was never closed turns up in the city's inspection, the buyer's inspection or at the title company. Closing it now is usually a call and a final inspection.
Check the flood map
FEMA maps flood zones along Brownstown Creek and the Clee drains. If the home is in a zone, the buyer's lender will require flood insurance.
Book the final water reading
Call the Water Department as soon as you have a closing date: 734-675-4908, at 21840 Van Horn.
