Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Mar 2026 - May 2026).
Year over year, Venola’s rolling three-month typical home value has dipped slightly, down about 6 percent. Listing prices have eased a bit as well, while homes sold have jumped by roughly 90 percent, signaling much stronger sales activity than a year ago. New listings and pending sales are also up sharply, pointing to more movement on both the buyer and seller sides.
In the latest three-month view through May 2026, the typical home value sits around $368,000, with a median list price near $352,000. Venola’s values remain below the broader Bakersfield area, where the median sale price is closer to $418,000, highlighting a more affordable option within the city.
Homes are selling more quickly than last year, with the median time on market now about 27 days and more than half of properties going off market within two weeks. Even with more active listings, lean inventory of roughly 1.2 months of supply and an average sale-to-list ratio near 100 percent reflect a solid seller’s market. Only about 29 percent of recent sales closed above list price, suggesting buyers still have room to negotiate on some properties. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting conditions in Venola can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local real estate agent who understands the numbers and the nuances.

“Working with Karen was excellent, she made sure to be there for us in every step of the process, was kind and patient enough to explain things to us and made sure we were comfortable. I do believe she's wonderful in her job and very professional. Although I would recommend her to change some of the contacts for some of the services that comes with buying a house, like the house inspection one and the carpet cleaning services; nothing to do with HER work but something to consider.”

She took the time to look at many homes and was very supportive, encouraging and motivating. She has such a great personality and so much passion for her clients and goes the extra mile. I am so happy that I found Bonnie, because of her , i'm in my forever home. I love my new home and i'm very happy and feel accomplished safe, secure and grounded.

“We had a good time working together, the sale and the buy of houses we're pretty seamless all the documentation and the heads up of signing and sending she was on top of any questions that we needed answered if she couldn't do it in that moment, she would always get back to us promptly can't wait to get another house through Janely. Thanks again.”
Averra Real Estate
“Zachary Newman was awesome. I was very fortunate to have him as my first realtor ever. He was extremely knowledgeable. He became well acquainted with what i was looking for and what I may qualify for under my pre-qualified loan terms. On a number of occasions, we would visit a potential property, and he would easily identify possible problems that would either hinder the ability of the property to get approved under my mortgage terms, or may pose a problem down the road. He gave very sound advice and/or pointed out red flags when looking at homes. He was very responsive in all of our correspondence; to the point where I was hearing hiccups and issues regarding the approval of my loan from him first, before my mortgage loan team would alert me. More than often, he would have a offer written up for potential home in less than a day. He was patient with me as we looked at a number of homes and did not show any frustration with my hesitancy toward certain homes. I cannot thank him enough for viewing homes on my schedule, sometimes driving across town to show me a home late into the evening due to my work schedule. I will definitely use Zach again should i ever buy or sell in the years to come.”
