Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Q1 2026).
Year-over-year patterns in Rock City show a small, low-volume market with wide price swings over time. Median sale prices have ranged from $110,000 in mid-2023 to $185,000 in early 2024, then down to $48,000 by early 2026, highlighting how a few sales can shift the numbers dramatically.
Looking at the latest rolling three-month view ending July 2026, recent data from March 2026 is the most complete snapshot. At that point, there was just one active listing and one closed sale, with the home selling in only 5 days and above the list price, a sharp contrast to the 75-day median in late 2025 and 95 days at the end of 2024.
Inventory has stayed very thin over the past few years, often at only one to three active listings at a time and months of supply fluctuating from 1.5 to just over 6 months. With the market currently labeled a strong seller’s market, limited options mean pricing, timing, and strategy matter a lot for both buyers and sellers, and Agent Pronto can connect them with an agent who understands these local dynamics.

“Thanks Ray for your help selling my home.”
Real People Realty
“Steve sold our house the first weekend on the market, for well over asking, but that's honestly only part of the reason he was a great realtor to sell our house. When our buyer had a medical emergency the day of closing, Steve was able to help us manage the situation and resolve it as quickly as possible after we had already left the state. I'm truly grateful for everything he did for us!”
RE/MAX Suburban
“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.”

She made what can be a stressful process feel easy and manageable from start to finish. Tracy was both professional and personal, detail-oriented, responsive, and always quick to act when it mattered. Her deep knowledge of the local market and strong connections were invaluable throughout our purchase. We would wholeheartedly recommend Tracy to anyone looking to buy a home!”

“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.”

Berkshire Hathaway Starck Real Estate
“I previously used Jeffry Phillips to sell a house I inherited. It was a very emotional time and he was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and gave suggestions of things that could be done to the house prior to selling it. Because that experience was so positive and he was so professional I utilized his services when it was time for me to sell my house. When it came time to sell my home, he was professional and extremely knowledgeable about the Garfield Ridge neighborhood. I would highly recommend him to any of my friends family, and neighbors if they are buying or selling a house.”
