Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).
Inventory and contract activity in Marion are shifting notably in this rolling three-month view ending in June 2026. Active listings are down about 11% from a year ago, yet new listings have inched up, and homes under contract reached 69, pointing to a steady flow of properties moving through the pipeline.
Pricing has been reacting strongly to these conditions, with the typical home value up roughly 13% year over year and the median list price climbing at a similar pace. At the same time, months of supply has risen to 3.8, higher than a year ago, signaling that buyers have a bit more to choose from even as values trend higher.
Speed and negotiation dynamics have also changed, as median days on market have shortened dramatically compared with earlier periods and nearly one-third of recent sales closed above list price. With the average sale-to-list ratio just under 99%, sellers are generally achieving prices close to their asking terms. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these evolving trends in Marion can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local real estate expert who understands this market and can guide them through each step of the process.

“Sixteen years ago, Rose Riordan helped us buy our first home in the suburbs. When it was time to sell that house and move to a city condo, she was our first and only choice. Rose handled the entire transition flawlessly. She was always available and easy to reach whenever we had questions or need her opinion throughout the process. We highly recommend her services when selling or buying a home!”

All that was done orderly and in a very short time. As a result the house was sold within three days and at a price much exceeding the asking one. I am very thankfull to Kim.”

“Paula had a very calming, professional presence to her. Paula was on-time, knowledgeable, brought up important points, suggestions and realistic timelines. Home looking is exciting and stressful and a good Agent in my opinion, reels you in a little towards reality. Pumping the brakes. Paula's communication was consistent and accurate and she was there when I needed her. Certainly made the process easier for me and I am happy to have worked with her.”

“Originally we were referred by our first lender and we could not have been more fortunate to work with Vicky and Sam. They were professional and realistic regarding our home search. We had not purchased a home in a very long time and Vicky was patient and understanding and was so attentive. avidly referred us to our second lender (the first was not communicative) and it was wonderful. Overall the whole experience was great! Thank you for helping us find our dream home!”

“Working with Tracy to buy our home was a great experience and she was always available and communicative even as we navigated some difficult parts of the negotiation with the seller. She was personally at every visit and even at the inspection and closing, going way above and beyond my expectations and previous experiences with buying agents. Thanks to her we found a home for our family and while we don't plan to buy in the near future I'd be happy to work with her again and again. Thanks Tracy!”

“Lisa Buskirk-Inman was absolutely wonderful to work with. She came to our home to make signing the paperwork easy since my husband is having health issues and is not easily able to get around right now.

“Barb was 1/20 realtors who was willing to work with me in the beginning over 9 years ago. This is when I first purchased my home. I was cheap buyer. It went without saying I was going to be using her for the sale of the home 9 years later. She handled the hurdles flawlessly and talked me through and coached me the entire way. To say I appreciate her is an understatement. I sold my home after we relocated it of state and she coordinated every logistic of that sale on my behalf to he best of her ability. I recommend her without fail and would point every person in her direction that has a need for a solid realtor.”

“Working with Emir is always a pleasure. He was very helpful in coordinating work on our house for sale, working with vendors and providing valuable feedback on neccesary work vs. potential work items unlikely to generate return. We closed sale of house 3 weeks from time of first listing. I'd worked with Emir before and hope to do so again in the future.”
