On the supply side, conditions remain relatively tight, with inventory at 36 homes, down 5.26% from last month but still 2.86% higher than a year ago as 24 new listings came on the market and 22 went under contract. Looking ahead to March 2026, projections point to a typical home value of about $696,250 and a median list price near $711,175 with inventory expected to edge to 35, so both buyers and sellers can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with an agent who understands how to navigate these trends in Brightwood.
