“Kim was hands down the best realtor we could have asked for! Buying and selling a home at the same time was stressful, but she made the entire process so much easier. She was always one step ahead, kept us informed, answered every question, and truly had our best interests at heart. When communication with the buyers' agent became difficult, Kim stayed on top of everything, followed up constantly, and worked tirelessly to keep the sale moving forward. Her persistence played a huge role in making sure we didn't lose the deal. Most importantly, we never felt like just another client. Kim genuinely cared about our family and went above and beyond to help us find the home of our dreams. We can't thank her enough and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, dedicated, and caring realtor!”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).
Year-over-year, Hillcrest’s rolling three-month numbers show mixed movement in prices and activity. Typical home values are down compared with a year ago, yet the median list price has climbed by around one-fifth, signaling that sellers are testing higher asking prices even as closing prices ease.
Inventory and listing activity have shifted notably over the past year in this rolling three-month view. Active listings are up roughly one-third while new listings have more than doubled, and months of supply has increased to about 2.1 months, giving buyers a bit more choice than in the past.
Demand patterns look more uneven, with pending sales down sharply from a year ago even though homes sold are slightly higher. Homes are taking much longer to sell than last year, yet nearly all recent sales closed at or above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio sits just above 100 percent, reflecting a market that still tilts toward sellers. In this kind of changing environment, both buyers and sellers in Hillcrest can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting them with an agent who understands the latest trends.
