Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly Inventory and Sales Activity for Jefferson County
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Jefferson County home values in September 2026 were about 5 percent higher than a year earlier, even as sales activity cooled. Homes sold were down roughly 11 percent year over year, and new listings fell nearly 14 percent, indicating fewer transactions overall. Supply expanded sharply over the past year, with months of supply up more than 78 percent, pointing to a more balanced environment than last fall.
In the latest monthly snapshot, the typical home value was about $294,000, while the median list price hovered near $261,000. Homes took a median of 63 days to sell, and the share closing above list price slipped slightly to about 18 percent, signaling that buyers have more room to negotiate than earlier in the year.
Compared with Alabama overall, Jefferson County’s typical sale price in September sat just below the statewide median of about $299,000, but its months of supply of 5.1 was a touch higher than the state’s 4.9, reinforcing that local conditions are more neutral than tight. Over recent months, sales, pending contracts, and new listings have all trended lower from early-summer peaks, while inventory has stayed relatively steady. With the market gauge firmly in neutral territory, both buyers looking for leverage and sellers aiming to price strategically can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate professional to guide their next move.

Jefferson County offers residents a vibrant, diverse community with excellent parks, cultural events, strong schools, and convenient access to healthcare, housing, and employment.
Jefferson County immediately stands out from nearby suburban counties by combining metro energy and historic neighborhoods with easy access to outdoor escapes. From downtown Birmingham and its skyline to tree lined streets in Hoover and Vestavia Hills, residents share a strong sense of local identity rooted in industry, civil rights history, and food culture.
Cultural life runs through places like the Birmingham Museum of Art, Alabama Theatre, and the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute, while families appreciate neighborhood schools and access to higher education at UAB. Outdoor time is close at hand, whether you are hiking at Red Mountain Park, walking Railroad Park, or heading to Homewood for local shops and coffee.
Housing options range from historic homes in city neighborhoods to new subdivisions and established communities in places like Trussville and Gardendale. Commutes connect through a regional network of interstates and local routes, so choosing the right area within the county is often just as important as choosing the right home.
With prices and inventory shifting from one suburb to the next, timing and preparation matter. A local Agent Pronto recommended agent can help buyers position strong offers in competitive pockets and guide sellers on pricing, condition, and marketing so they are ready when the right opportunity appears.

“Kenneth was the realtor we never knew we needed! We didn’t know him before we began our search for a new home in 2024! We kept him as our realtor to sell our home and he honestly helped us in more ways outside of his “job description” than most would! He became a friend and always has our best interest at heart! We can’t wait to work with him again in the very near future as we look for our dream land/home!”
“Austrailia was very professional at all times. She held my hand through the whole process. It’s never too many questions for her. If she doesn’t know the answer she most definitely will get the answers for. Austrailia is the best.”
“Christina and her team are the ultimate real estate professionals in Birmingham and the surrounding area. If you want to work with someone with vast market knowledge that you endeavor to create the best outcome for you, then Christina is your solution. From clear and constant communication to a team that can market your property like no other (they created 10X+ more Zillow engagement can any competing house), Christina and her Birmingham Welcome Home Team are five star in every category!”
“Jason is an exceptional real estate professional. His experience, professionalism, and dedication truly showed throughout the sale of our home in Springville. We had previously worked with others who were unable to get the job done, but Jason stepped in and delivered. He was knowledgeable, responsive, proactive, honest, and incredibly committed from start to finish. He handled every aspect of the transaction with confidence and made what could have been a stressful process remarkably smooth. Thank you, Jason!!! Jason went above and beyond what you would expect from a realtor. He communicated consistently, paid attention to every detail, offered excellent advice, and never stopped working to get us the best possible outcome. People, if you are buying or selling a home, I very, very highly recommend Jason Carnes without hesitation. His experience, work ethic, professionalism, and results shine out loud and speak for themselves. Jason, we are extremely grateful for everything you did to help us successfully sell our home. Thank you!”
“Jill and her team are the best. She helped us sell our home from afar and made sure all the details were taken care of throughout the process. We had originally listed with a different agent and terminated that contract at 60 days. Jill sold our home within 2 weeks of seeing the property. She is trustworthy and incredibly knowledgeable about the real estate market in the area.”
“Working with Gary and Nancy is very much a pleasure. They are very responsive to all our needs at every stage of the process. When we first bought 3 years ago, they went out of their way to let us understand our options in the areas of greater Birmingham that fit the criteria for what we wanted in a home. Now that we were moving again, Gary and Nancy, spent the time to ensure that we were priced right to sell and that we accentuated the features of our home and the improvements we had made. Needless to say, the home received and accepted the offer within 2 days. We would highly recommend Gary and Nancy to help with all your needs!”
“Karen was superior in her support, advice, and vision for selling our mother's home. Her knowledge, professionalism, and follow up throughout the process could not have been stronger. I recommend Karen without hesitation.”
“Amanda made buying our first home—while living out of state—feel far less overwhelming than we ever expected. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond to make sure we felt informed and confident in every step of the process. Since we couldn’t be there in person, the detailed videos she took of the home, the neighborhood, and surrounding area were incredibly helpful and gave us a true sense of the home. She even made sure we had some water, snacks, and basics at the home when we flew in from out of state after closing. Amanda was responsive, knowledgeable, honest, and made what could have been a stressful process feel seamless from start to finish. She guided us through every detail with patience and professionalism, and we always felt like she genuinely had our best interests at heart. We’re so grateful to have had her by our side while buying our first home, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
“Dawn was phenomenal to work with. We were out of state buyers for this home and she went out of her way to keep the process going when we had a hiccup with another house. Very communicative with us which was fantastic. We had issues with another house and she got the answers we needed in a timely manner!”
“We are first time home buyers and Aleah was super informative and helpful. She was also super kind about everything, but was still willing to be super honest and warn you about things if they didn’t seem right, definitely had your best interest in mind before anything else ! Also if you want responsive, she will make sure your taken care- I never had to wait longer than 10 mins for a reply or call about a question I had.”
“Working with Celena was an amazing experience. I highly recommend her to all homebuyers, at any stage of life. She made the whole process super simple and easy to understand.”
“Quick response time when I first reached out to Agent Pronto. The name says it all! Rick jumped right in and took charge. His knowledge helped me make tough decisions.”
“Jerry and Karen were wonderful agents. They helped us through our first time home buying experience. They were very patient with us as we looked through multiple houses. They advised us the pros and cons of each house we looked at. Jerry was always available to answer questions before and after finding a house, and ensured we were properly taken care of! If you need an agent in Hoover, look no further!”

I am very grateful that I was able to have her as my realtor.”

“Apryl was incredible from start to finish, and we couldn't have asked for a better agent. She was always available, patient, and genuinely invested in helping us, and treated us like family. She took time out of her day to really listen to our needs, answered all our questions and explained everything thoroughly, and guided us through every step of the process with patience and clarity. She made sure we felt confident in our decisions and supported us every step of the way. We never felt rushed or left in the dark.
