September 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 (Sep 2026).
Year-over-year, Stanislaus County home values and listing prices are trending upward, with the typical home value and median list price both up around 3 to 4 percent. In contrast, inventory is slightly lower than a year ago and months of supply has fallen nearly 16 percent, reinforcing its status as a seller’s market compared with California overall, where prices are higher and supply is looser at about 3.6 months.
In the latest September 2026 snapshot, buyers saw a typical home value just under $490,000 and a median list price close to $493,000. Activity is solid, with 323 homes sold and 375 pending sales, even as pending contracts dipped modestly from the prior month.
Current listing dynamics show 1,308 active listings and 422 new listings, with new listings up more than 22 percent from last year and homes taking a median of 31 days to go under contract. Roughly 27 percent of homes are still selling above list and the average sale-to-list ratio holds near 99 percent, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended agent to help them navigate pricing, timing, and negotiation in this market.
Stanislaus County offers its residents a welcoming, family-friendly community with diverse job opportunities, strong schools, affordable living, and ample outdoor recreation and cultural amenities that together support a high quality of life.
Stanislaus County sits in the northern San Joaquin Valley, offering direct access to Highway 99, Interstate 5, and rail connections that make commuting to Stockton, Sacramento, or the Bay Area practical for many residents. Modesto anchors the county with a mix of historic neighborhoods, newer subdivisions, and a growing downtown dining scene.
Daily life here balances convenience and outdoor recreation. Families frequent Graceada Park and the Modesto Certified Farmers Market for local produce. The Tuolumne River Regional Park provides trails, picnic areas, and water access, while boaters and anglers head to Woodward Reservoir. Turlock offers a strong community feel near California State University, Stanislaus and a compact downtown with restaurants and coffee shops.
Education and services are central to local life. Families research districts like Modesto City Schools and Turlock Unified School District when choosing neighborhoods. Smaller communities such as Ceres and Oakdale appeal to those seeking quieter streets while still staying close to shopping and healthcare in Modesto and Turlock. Rural areas of Stanislaus County attract buyers looking for acreage and agricultural opportunities.
With varied housing options, changing market conditions, and distinct pockets like Riverbank and Patterson, choosing the right home or pricing one to sell can feel complex. Local agents who truly understand Stanislaus County’s neighborhoods, traffic patterns, and amenities can streamline decisions and reduce stress. Agent Pronto connects both buyers and sellers with those trusted local experts.

“Shelby was amazing to work with on purchasing my first home. She made the process as smooth as possible. I felt comfortable with making this huge decision. We were even able to close early! Shelby explained the home buying process, helped with understanding negotiations and what is a reasonable offer. Her knowledge of the market and the area was reassuring when accepting the offer.”
“I worked with Megan twice: first when I bought my home, and again six years later when I sold it. Both times she was outstanding. When I was buying, Megan asked a lot of thoughtful questions to understand what I actually needed and wanted, and she came with me to every showing. She paid attention to how I felt about each house we saw and based her recommendations on my reactions, which helped us zero in on the right place. She also suggested areas I hadn’t considered and was incredibly informative about the different builders and neighborhoods, which helped me feel confident in my decision. When a relocation meant I had to sell, I wasn’t going to be in the area to handle the details. Megan took care of everything for me, from start to finish. She arranged the inspection, the stager, and the cleaners, so I didn’t have to coordinate any of it from a distance. When an incident the day before closing required a repair, she handled that too. My house sold in just 6 days, and we received a little more than the asking price. I can’t recommend Megan highly enough. If you want a realtor who is knowledgeable, attentive, and truly looks out for you, she’s the one to call.”
“Vicky did a great job helping us purchase our house. She was always available, responsive and gave us great advice. She made the process very easy and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home.”
“Genaro Duran was awesome. He worked very hard everyday. He immediately hired photographer take a bunch of pictures of the house inside and out, and put those on several different websites right away. He held many open houses, and drove by at least once a week to make sure the lawn company and and the pool company we're taking care of those items, and the house was being kept up and was staying secure. We have previously used Gennaro on a different real estate transaction, and he did a great job there also. I strongly encourage anyone considering a real estate transaction to contact Genaro Duran.”
“Brittany and her team are professional, knowledgeable and truly care about their clients. They have helped me purchase multiple investment properties in Contra costa county. Highly recommend.”
“I truly couldn't have asked for a better realtor than Jose Padilla! As a first-time homebuyer, purchasing my first home was one of the biggest and most important decisions of my life. I had so many questions, concerns, and uncertainties throughout the process, and I am incredibly grateful that I had Jose by my side to guide me through it all. From the very beginning, Jose was knowledgeable, professional, patient, and genuinely invested in helping me become a homeowner. He took the time to explain the process, walk me through important decisions, and help me understand my options without making me feel pressured. I never felt like I was just another transaction to him. What I appreciated most was his dedication and willingness to advocate for my best interests. He helped me navigate negotiations, seller credits, inspections, paperwork, and the many moving parts that come with purchasing a home. My particular transaction was far from straightforward, with unexpected delays and complications that made an already stressful experience even more challenging. Throughout it all, Jose remained committed to seeing things through and helping me reach the finish line. I also appreciated that his support didn't simply end once the paperwork was signed. He continued helping me navigate the transition into homeownership, including coordinating important HOA information after closing. That level of care and follow-through meant so much to me. Buying my first home was a major milestone, and I will always be thankful that Jose was part of that experience. His hard work, dedication, and commitment to his clients truly deserve recognition. If you're looking for a realtor who will take your homebuying journey seriously, advocate for your interests, and stand by you through the challenges, I wholeheartedly recommend Jose Padilla. Thank you so much, Jose, for helping me accomplish something that means so much to me. I am officially a homeowner, and I couldn't be more grateful!”
“Lori Benedict was absolutely incredible throughout the entire process of selling our home. From start to finish, she was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to making sure we understood every step along the way. She took the time to explain everything in detail, answer all of our questions, and make sure we felt comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. What really sets Lori apart is how far above and beyond she goes for her clients. She was incredibly patient, always available, and willing to meet us wherever we needed her to be. No matter what came up, she made us feel like a priority and was always willing to go the extra mile to help us navigate the process. Selling a home can be stressful, but Lori made the entire experience so much easier. Her professionalism, communication, patience, and genuine dedication exceeded our expectations in every way. We cannot recommend Lori Benedict highly enough. If you are looking for a realtor who truly cares about her clients and will go above and beyond every step of the way, Lori is the one you want in your corner.”

“Yousuf did a great job managing the sell of my property. I live out of state and he professional ly handle the remodel and staging. He's is part of team that he can draw from to help with estate sale, remodel and staging. He worked great with the banks and escrow company. And he himself was pleasant and understanding when I had questions.”
“When Natasha says she will do something she gets it done, not tomorrow but right now. You won't find anyone that is more competent, knowledgeable, and responsive. Weekends, weekdays, after normal hours, she is always working for you. Her assistance with inspections, and repairs was invaluable. I could go on for pages detailing all the ways she helped us sell my sister's house. My family was so fortunate to find her. Before you choose an agent make sure you speak with her. You won't regret it!”

Drew always had great advice to give and was very knowledgeable about the communities we visited. He listened to all my wants and needs and checked every box. He exceeded my expectations. I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a home.”
“We listed our home in River Islands not knowing what to expect in this market, and David got us a full asking offer in three days. That kind of result doesn't happen by accident. He came in prepared, knew the market cold, and handled every detail so we didn't have to chase anything down. Anytime we had a question he was quick to respond, and he was always straight with us, which honestly mattered more than anything. If you're selling and you want someone who actually fights for you, David is the call to make.”
“My realtor was absolutely amazing throughout my first home buying experience! She went above and beyond every step of the way to make the process as smooth and stress free as possible. She was always willing to help in any way she could, answered my questions, and made sure I felt supported throughout the entire journey. Her dedication, patience, and commitment truly made a difference in making my dream of becoming a homeowner possible. I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor, and I’m so grateful to have had her by my side during such an important milestone in my life. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home.”
“We had such a great experience working with Eric! We are first time homebuyers and honestly had very little knowledge at first about how everything worked or what we needed to do. Eric was so great at explaining everything and making sure we understood what was happening every step of the way. It took us almost two years to find the right house, and we dragged him all over different counties looking at homes. He was always patient with us and never made us feel rushed. He was especially amazing during closing week! He stayed on top of everything, made sure things were getting done, and kept us updated multiple times a day. Anytime we had a question, he was always quick to answer our texts or calls. He made what could have been a really stressful process so much easier, and we’re so thankful for all the time and effort he put into helping us find our home. We would recommend Eric to anyone looking for a realtor!”
“We began our home-buying journey with very little experience, and meeting Josh at an open house was truly a blessing. From our first interaction, he impressed us with his expertise, professionalism, and genuine willingness to help. He guided us through every step of the search and purchasing process with patience, care, and unwavering support. Josh’s exceptional knowledge of the Tri-Valley real estate market was invaluable. His understanding of the area’s neighborhoods helped us find the right location and make confident, well-informed decisions. He made what could have been an overwhelming experience—especially for first-time buyers—smooth and reassuring through his responsiveness, negotiating skills, helpful resources, and steady guidance. We were able to get our dream home at a very competitive price. More than an excellent realtor, Josh became a trusted friend who genuinely cared about our needs. We are deeply grateful for his dedication and for going above and beyond to help us find our home. We wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone buying a home. You will be in excellent hands.”
“Jennifer is an incredibly kind and knowledgeable realtor. She helped us with the purchase of our most recent home and she made the house buying process so easy and was amazing at giving us any updates. I would recommend her without hesitation to any of my family or friends. She was honest and straightforward and made the home buying process so much easier!”
“I give Linnette and her team the highest recommendation possible. If you miss out on working with her, you're making a mistake. I originally met her when buying my home in North Oakand 10 years ago, and she was excellent. During Covid, I left the area, and in 2026 I made the decision to sell. It was a no-brainer to go back to Linnette. I am across the country, and she managed the entire process with no hassle for me. Took care of specs, comps, price modeling, recommended renovations, affordable contractor, etc. She and her team were in great touch throughout. I trusted her opinions, and she got me a wild number of bids and an incredible purchase price. Everything went off without a hitch. I would definitely work with her again. Thanks, Team Linnette!”
“Duy is great to work with and very knowledgeable. He responded to any inquiries we had promptly and on our timeline. He negotiated in good faith which resulted in a successful purchase. Highly recommended!”
