Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Independence County real estate market. *
June 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
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 (Jun 2026).
Inventory and contract activity in Independence County shifted noticeably in June 2026. Active listings are up more than 25% year over year while new listings have climbed nearly 35%, yet homes sold are down about 10% from last June and pending sales are still over 40% higher than a year ago, indicating more choices but a mixed pace of closings.
Pricing is adjusting as these dynamics play out. The typical home value is down sharply from last year, falling more than a third, and the median list price has dropped nearly 12% year over year, while the share of homes selling above list has inched up compared with last June and the average sale-to-list ratio hovers around 97%.
Timing has also changed for buyers and sellers compared with a year ago. Homes now sit on the market much longer, with median days on market jumping dramatically year over year and months of supply roughly doubling to 4.2, bringing Independence County close to the 4.7 months of supply seen across Arkansas as a whole. With conditions in flux for both buyers and sellers, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local real estate agent who understands these trends and can guide you through your next move.
