Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Inventory in Fair Haven has tightened notably in this rolling three-month view, with active listings down nearly 16% year over year to 35 even as months of supply has roughly doubled to 4.4. Contract activity has shifted, as homes sold are down almost 37% from a year ago while pending sales are up about 26%, signaling more deals in the pipeline than completed closings.
Price trends are reacting to these dynamics, with the typical home value up nearly 10% year over year and the median list price rising almost 20%. Sellers are still achieving strong results, as about 61% of recent sales closed above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio is just over 101%, though that ratio has edged slightly lower than a year ago.
Time on market has shortened, with the median days on market dropping to 35, about 20% faster than last year and down sharply from earlier in 2026. Compared with the broader New Haven market, Fair Haven’s typical home value now sits close to the citywide median while carrying a higher months of supply than the city overall, suggesting buyers here see a bit more selection even as sought-after homes move quickly. In this environment of shifting inventory, pricing, and pace, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in connecting with a local Fair Haven agent who knows how to navigate these trends.
