Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Q1 2026).

Rock City’s housing data points to large swings when comparing recent years, reflecting a very small number of sales. At the end of 2023, the median sale price was about $127,400, up from $110,000 mid-year, then rising again to $178,000 by the end of 2024 before dropping to $48,000 by March 2026.

Looking more closely at the latest rolling three-month period, March 2026 shows just one sale, one new listing, and one pending sale, underscoring how each transaction can significantly shift local averages. Days on market shortened sharply to just 5 days in March 2026, compared with 95 days at the end of 2024 and 187 days at the end of 2023, indicating that when homes do come up for sale, they can move quickly.

Conditions lean toward sellers according to the market gauge, which classifies Rock City as a seller’s market. With months of supply measured at 1.5 in mid-2023 and then 6.1 by fall 2024, inventory has fluctuated, but limited recent activity means pricing and timing can be hard to interpret without expert guidance. Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an experienced local agent to help them navigate these shifting conditions and make sense of the latest trends.

“Selling our first home was emotional, and we couldn’t have asked for a better realtor than Brittany. When our first offer fell through, she had us under contract with a second offer within 24 hours! Her unwavering confidence and steady reassurance helped us feel at ease during such an uncertain time, especially as first-time sellers. Brittany supported us every step of the way, always making time to listen, answer our questions, and talk through our concerns. We felt heard, cared for, and confident that she had our best interests at heart. This was our second real estate transaction with Brittany, and we would never work with anyone else. We’re so grateful for her dedication, expertise, and kindness. We cannot recommend her highly enough!”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Steve Goodman and the experience we’ve had working with him over the past 10 years. Steve was my realtor when I purchased my very first condo, and 10 years later, he was right there with us as we sold that condo and purchased what we hope will be our forever home. Having the opportunity to work with the same realtor through such an important chapter of our lives speaks volumes about the trust and confidence we have in him. What sets Steve apart is that he genuinely puts his clients’ best interests first. He is never pushy or focused on simply making a sale. Instead, he takes the time to listen, answer every question, offer honest advice, and make sure you feel comfortable with every decision. He is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to go the extra mile.”

“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.”

“Catherine Terpstra made herself available to us in our search for a house as we were moving from out of state back to IL. As soon as we contacted her, it felt like she dropped everything "just for us". (We know she was attending to other clinets, as well!) She was very efficient in setting up houses for us to tour, within and without our pricing perameters. She "heard us" in regard to the "non-negotiables" we had for a house for which we were looking. She printed out pertinent infomration on each place for us. We were in a time-crunch, as we had come from out of state to search for a place to live. She was able to help us find a very nice new home. We are very thankful to her for her understanding and expertise in real estate and in the current housing market.”
