Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).
Hillcrest’s rolling three-month numbers show home values and activity moving higher than a year ago. The typical home value is up a few percent year over year, and the median list price has also edged higher. Homes sold and pending sales are both above last year’s levels, pointing to steadier demand.
Looking at the latest rolling period ending in June 2026, prices and seller leverage stand out. The typical home value sits around $333,000, while the median list price is roughly $380,000, and about half of recent sales closed above the asking price. Homes are spending a median of 29 days on the market, and months of supply is near 4.8, which aligns with the area’s overall seller’s market designation.
Inventory and new listings have climbed compared with a year ago, giving buyers a bit more to choose from even as prices trend upward. At the same time, the average sale-to-list ratio is just under 96 percent, and the share selling above list has risen sharply from last year, underscoring how prepared buyers still need to be. With these mixed signals of rising prices, improving inventory, and ongoing seller strength, both buyers and sellers in Hillcrest can benefit from an experienced local agent, and Agent Pronto can help connect them with the right one.

“We live in the Bay Area and needed to sell our parents' home in Fresno. Paul Haworth met with us on short notice and patiently guided us through every step of the process. As first-time home sellers, we appreciated his clear explanations and constant support. Paul connected us with trusted local professionals for the estate sale, donations, landscaping, and minor repairs. We were able to coordinate everything remotely, and he kept us updated throughout. He priced and marketed the home effectively, hosted multiple open houses, and sold the house in about a month. His communication was excellent, and he always listened to our concerns while offering sound professional advice. Paul's professionalism, expertise, and reassuring demeanor made what could have been a stressful experience remarkably smooth. We highly recommend Paul Haworth to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”

“From beginning to .end, Lauren provided us with the best service anyone could have. She understood the familial connection to this home, and never minimized our wishes regarding it's history. In fact, she enhanced that connection. Her knowledge of the local market, comps, staging and showing, and closing the deal were all amazing. We felt totally involved, totally informed, and totally guided in every step of this process. We don't have any current needs to purchase or sell property, but if/when that arrises in the future, our only call will be to Lauren Dunn. She is the best”

“Bonnie Centeno was absolutely outstanding throughout the sale of our home. Selling a house during a difficult divorce could have been incredibly stressful, but Bonnie made the entire process as smooth as possible. Even though I was living out of town, she went above and beyond by coordinating the preparation of the property, arranging landscaping for the front yard, purchasing pool supplies to get the pool ready, and making sure the house showed at its best. She kept us informed every step of the way, was always professional, and truly looked out for our best interests. Thanks to her hard work and dedication, our home sold successfully. I highly recommend Bonnie to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, hardworking, and caring Realtor. She exceeded every expectation.”

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience working with Amy Mosley. Selling a home can be an emotional and stressful process, but she made everything feel much easier with her professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care. What stood out most was how she managed the necessary preparations to get the place in the best salable condition. Being out of state I was so impressed with her commitment to direct the necessary upgrades, which ended up to be a huge job. She listened to my needs, kept me informed, and made sure I felt comfortable with each decision along the way. Her expertise and dedication went far beyond simply selling a property, she strives to maximize the property market potential, and that proved to be true. I would highly recommend Amy to anyone looking for an highly experienced and professional real estate agent who genuinely cares about her clients and delivers exceptional results.”
