Over the past year, Palmer’s home values have moved lower, with the typical home value down about 20.18 percent. That contrasts with Matanuska-Susitna Borough overall, where typical values are up 3.7 percent to around $420,000. Even with this decline, Palmer is still operating as a seller’s market.
In February 2026, the typical home value in Palmer was about $314,900 while the median list price sat higher at roughly $389,000. Homes sold quickly, spending a median of just 26 days on the market, which is about 51.85 percent faster than the prior month.
