Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
Year-over-year, Lakewood Shores home values have climbed sharply, with the typical home value up more than 28 percent in this rolling three-month window ending August 2026. At the same time, inventory has tightened, as active listings are down about 17 percent from a year ago while months of supply has risen roughly 20 percent, signaling shifting conditions within an overall seller-friendly environment.
Looking at recent activity, sales volume has cooled compared with last year, with homes sold down more than 40 percent and new listings off nearly 50 percent in this rolling three-month view. Despite that slower pace, pricing power remains strong, as roughly 75 percent of recent sales closed above list and the average sale-to-list ratio stands near 103 percent.
Time on market has lengthened slightly, with the median days on market up about 12 percent year over year to just over seven weeks, yet nearly half of homes still go off the market within two weeks. With only nine active listings and four homes sold during the latest period, every transaction carries more weight, making local expertise especially important. Buyers facing tight options and strong pricing, and sellers working to price and time their listing effectively, can both benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding the right real estate agent in Lakewood Shores.

“Michelle was exceptional throughout the entire home-buying process! She was always on top of the paperwork, deadlines, and everything we needed to get our purchase completed. Her responsiveness, organization, and attention to detail made the process so much smoother. We truly appreciated all her hard work and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home!”
“Katherine Rubis was very patient with me during the year that I was looking for homes. She was always available to discuss our next steps or to show me new listings. Every single part of the process that Katherine handled was very smooth and easy for me. She is an outstanding agent and I will definitely call her when I am in the market to sell or buy a home again. There is nothing else she could have done to make me more satisfied with working with her. I have zero complaints.”
“A pleasure to work with from start to finish. Knowledgeable, friendly and professional.”
“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!”
“Kathi was amazing! She kept us informed with every step, and answered every question we had thoroughly. She also saved our bacon a couple times when we weren't sure about something. She's very professional, kind, and attentive”
“Working with Cathy truly was a blessing and a prayer answered. From day one, Cathy was on top of EVERYTHING. She made the sale of our home, as well as the buying of our new home, such a wonderful experience. Even though we ran into some hiccups, which were out of our hands, Cathy handled it all for us. From her marketing, to her overall knowledge of buying and selling, Cathy was on top of everything. I'm so thankful and grateful to have had her on this journey, by our side. I know I will recommend her time and time again, to all our family and friends.”
“Larry is by far the most AMAZING Realtor. He was always very responsive to my calls, texts, request, etc. We built up such a great relationship through this crazy process, that even after we closed on our new home, he reached out to check on us. He is always looking to get the best deal for his clients. He is like family now to us and will always have his own seat next to the firepit in our backyard. I would DEFINETLY recommend Larry to anyone and everyone looking to buy or sell. AMAZING.. Can't say enough Great things about Larry.”
“Carmen Mitulescu was a pleasure to work with! Her overall knowledge and skills were bar none! I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her again if I ever decide to sell my home and purchase another property!!!”
“The quicker the response the better, and Taylor was always there for me when I had questions I did not experience any issues with Taylor's work and she made everything easy for me, worked around my schedule, even gave me real advise about the neighborhoods I was searching in I was not pressured to do this survey in any way, and I feel she can be trusted handling my close friends and family's home purchase needs”
