Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
Herscher’s rolling three-month data shows home values moving notably higher than a year ago. The typical home value is up about 15 percent year over year, indicating solid price appreciation. At the same time, median list prices are down more than 20 percent from last year, suggesting sellers are pricing more cautiously even as values rise.
Inventory conditions have shifted sharply over the past year in this rolling window. Months of supply has climbed to around 9.6, more than tripling compared with a year ago and signaling a much looser environment for buyers than before. Active listings are also up more than 20 percent year over year, while new listings have more than doubled, giving shoppers more options but also requiring sellers to work harder to stand out.
Looking at the latest three-month period ending in August 2026, buyers are seeing homes sit longer, with median days on market at about 123 days and only three homes sold. Even so, roughly one-third of recent sales closed above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio is just under 97 percent, showing that well-positioned homes can still attract strong offers. With more inventory, longer timelines, and mixed pricing signals, both buyers and sellers in Herscher can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate professional to navigate strategy and negotiations effectively.

“Kim helped us sell our home, and I can’t recommend her enough. She answered my questions late on a Friday and even on a Sunday during a holiday weekend. She was always available when we needed her. In a market where every offer deserved a close look, she helped us sort through them and choose the best one. We’re grateful for her hard work and guidance.”
“Thanks Ray for your help selling my home.”
“Was impressed from the beginning when the owner answered the phone and made an appointment within a day or two to come out to the property. When we decided to put the house on the market, they were extremely professional And answered all our questions. The photographer came out promptly, and took amazing pictures of the property. It was listed the next day,and our house sold in less than a week. Andrew McCatty was our broker. He could not have been more knowledgeable or professional. Any questions that we had, Andrew either answered the phone or got back to us very quickly. Highly recommend Andrew and Century 21 Circle. Would only work with them again and would recommend them to family and friends.”

Every single part of the process that Katherine handled was very smooth and easy for me.

There is nothing else she could have done to make me more satisfied with working with her. I have zero complaints.”

“Gergana was outstanding from start to finish. She was straightforward, never sugarcoating, and always on point with her suggestions. From the beginning, she came prepared with a clear plan and executed it flawlessly. I was initially worried about listing the house in January, but thanks to Gergana’s expertise and guidance, we were under contract in less than three days, and we received more than our asking price. Her advice was spot-on, and we’re so glad we followed it. We couldn’t be happier with the results and the smooth experience. If we ever need to sell a house again in the future, Gergana will be our first call. Highly recommended!”
