Franklin County home values have moved up sharply over the past year, climbing 65.63 percent to about $265,000, far outpacing Alabama’s 3.69 percent gain to roughly $300,300. Inventory also expanded, rising 56.82 percent year over year to 69 homes, giving buyers more options even as prices increased.
In the latest month of March 2026, the median list price reached $207,000, up 18.29 percent from the prior month, while the typical home value jumped 49.72 percent month over month. Homes spent a median of 87 days on the market, which is 4.4 percent faster than the previous month but still 128.95 percent longer than a year earlier, and only about 11.6 percent of listings saw a price drop.
Looking to next month, projections point to a typical home value of about $309,000 and a median list price near $223,000, with inventory expected to hold steady at 69 homes. Despite a market gauge of 33 indicating a seller’s market, months of supply sit at 7.7 and the sale-to-list ratio is about 0.96, suggesting buyers still have room to negotiate. Pending sales are up 31.25 percent and new listings have grown 53.85 percent year over year, signaling more movement on both sides of the table, and Agent Pronto can help both buyers and sellers in Franklin County connect with a strong local agent to navigate these conditions.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
