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 Dayton are showing mixed signals in this rolling three-month view ending in June 2026. Active listings are up modestly year over year, while homes sold and pending sales are both down significantly, pointing to slower follow-through from listing to closing.
Pricing is holding relatively firm despite softer sales counts. Typical home values are slightly higher than a year ago and the average sale-to-list ratio is just under 100 percent, yet the share of homes selling above list is smaller than it was in prior years.
Time on market and supply levels highlight a more balanced but cautious environment. Median days on market sit at about two months and months of supply have risen notably compared with last year, suggesting buyers have more breathing room while sellers face more negotiation. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting dynamics can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with an agent who understands Dayton’s current conditions.
Dayton offers residents a warm, close-knit community with safe neighborhoods, great local parks, convenient amenities, and a welcoming hometown atmosphere that makes daily life comfortable and fulfilling.
Dayton is a small, close-knit community that offers quick access to larger employment and shopping hubs while retaining a relaxed, residential feel. Located just a short drive from Lafayette and Purdue University, it appeals to buyers who want everyday convenience without big-city congestion.
Life here is centered on practical livability. Families value the connection to the Tippecanoe School Corporation, including nearby Dayton Elementary School and secondary options in the surrounding area. Residents make regular use of local parks and ball fields for youth sports and casual recreation, while broader shopping and dining choices are a few minutes away in West Lafayette. Access to major routes simplifies commutes and supports a range of housing options, from established neighborhoods to newer construction.
Everyday amenities such as grocery stores, healthcare providers, and service businesses are close at hand in the greater Tippecanoe County area, which helps Dayton feel practical and efficient for busy households. Proximity to cultural venues like the Long Center for the Performing Arts in Lafayette and outdoor escapes along the Wabash River adds weekend variety without long drives.
Because Dayton’s market shifts with regional job growth and university demand, a knowledgeable local real estate agent can interpret subtle pricing trends, school-zone nuances, and commute tradeoffs. Agent Pronto connects both buyers and sellers with those local experts to keep each move as straightforward and low stress as possible.
See why so many people rely on Agent Pronto to make their real estate journey a success.
“I had a wonderful experience. Tyler was always sensitive to our needs and listened to what was important. I have used other realtors, he was by far the best! Great negotiation skills and had our best interest getting deal done.”
“We love her! Erica was not only knowledgeable about the value and potential of our home but she was relatable, accurate, on time, available, everything you would want in a realtor. This is not a paid for as a review client. She's amazing! Don't waste your time selling for less, let her check it out first! She made us very happy. Serious buyers need to look her up. Thank you from our family to yours!”
“We worked with Patty last year to sell a house and it went very well. So well that it made sense to have her help us find our recent purchase. Patty is a gem in the market. She is personable, knowledgeable, responsive, and a pleasure to know and to work with. If we ever need a realtor again or if anyone needs a recommendation, we would definitely recommend Patty...over and over again!”
“Jeff was outstanding throughout the entire home-buying process. He was knowledgeable, responsive, and always took the time to answer our questions honestly. He made what could have been a stressful experience much smoother and ensured we felt informed every step of the way. I highly recommend Jeff to anyone looking for a dedicated and trustworthy real estate professional.”
“Tracy was great to work with. Definitely recommend her for your real estate needs!”
“10/10 always!! Thank you Robert!”
“It was a pleasure working with Lisa. She went above and beyond to help coordinate everything for the purchase of the house. She was always available for questions and feedback.”
“Zachary Robbins has been a pleasure to work with. He was very accommodating and flexible as he helped us through the process of finding a new home that was most ideal for our needs.”
“We have worked with Stockton both buying and selling in Bloomington. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anybody that is looking in the area. He's fantastic to work with.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better realtor. From listing our home to finding our next one, Rebekah Sims was with us every step of the way. Her communication was exceptional—we always knew what was happening and what to expect next. She marketed our home beautifully, was incredibly kind and easy to work with, and worked tirelessly on our behalf. Her dedication and professionalism gave us confidence throughout the entire process. We are so grateful for everything she did and would recommend her without hesitation.”
“Dennis and Michelle were very receptive and available for after hours conference calls and texts.”
“Sarah was great to work with throughout the entire process of buying our home. She cared about helping us find the right home and her knowledge of the Broad Ripple market was amazing. She knew what to look out for and pointed out things we would’ve never noticed, and she also made sure we were thorough with the inspection process. We always felt like she was looking out for us! Sarah was also always willing to answer our many questions. Buying a home can definitely be overwhelming, especially as first time home owners, but she made the whole process feel so much less stressful. Beth also really helped us throughout the process of being under contract/closing and made sure we met all of our deadlines, she was fantastic! We absolutely adore our new home and are so thankful for everything Sarah did to help us get here. We couldn't recommend her more highly to anyone looking for a realtor!”
“We've now worked with Rachel multiple times—she helped us sell a home in the past and recently purchase an investment property—and I truly can't recommend her enough. Rachel is incredibly responsive, works fast, and consistently goes above and beyond for her clients. Real estate transactions can be stressful, but she makes the entire process feel seamless by staying on top of every detail and keeping communication clear every step of the way. What I appreciate most is that she genuinely cares. She advocates for her clients, is proactive instead of reactive, and always makes you feel like you're her top priority. Whether you're buying your first home, selling, or investing in real estate, Rachel is the kind of realtor you want in your corner. We will absolutely continue using her for future transactions.”
“Michele was wonderful to work with. She is attentive, kind, patient, and knowledgeable. She not only got us into a home we absolutely love by making hard negotiations along the way, but also sold our old home in less than 2 days. We would ask her to be our agent over and over again.”
“Finding a home/property can be a stressful journey, but having Debra Hull by our side was a game-changer. What truly stood out was how much Debra cared about our family's well-being and finding us the right property. Debra always took the time to listen to our needs (even when we were just having sidebar conversation), addressed every concern with patience, incredibly attentive to the little details we wanted in a home/property and responded to our texts and calls almost instantly, no matter the time. We never felt pressured; instead, she treated us with such care and compassion that it felt like we were working with a trusted friend. If you want a realtor who goes above and beyond, look no further!”
“More than happy to have worked with Dan. He's knowledgeable, and makes sure to listen to what you are looking for to ensure that you are satisfied with the property/price.”
“Barketa is an excellent realtor! She is knowledgeable regarding the marketing and pricing of homes in our area, is trustworthy and willing to work with us while listening to our needs, and is a lot of fun to be around. Barketa navigated us through negotiations well and always explained each choice including pros and possible cons. We would definitely recommend Barketa to family and friends and really enjoyed going through this process with her! Thank you Barketa!!🩷 You ROCK!!”
“Shelley knows her stuff and is so helpful at explaining every step of the process. She gave sound advice and worked to get us internet at the house when there was a hiccup with the internet company. She called and got us set up with a temporary solution and petitioned for them to come earlier than they initially said. Additionally, she and Jim are just very kind people and a joy to work with. We can't recommend them enough.”
“I was really happy with Brandi Oaks, for being in a situation of losing my mom in February and I was selling her house since it was left to me I was told about Brandi met with her went over everything very efficient. Very nice person to work with and she knew what she was doing. She helped me in many ways I felt so comfortable around her working with her getting things done how to do it and that was very helpful because I didn't know nothing about selling a house. I bought one but never sold one all in all Brandi can sell a house of mine anytime but I live out of state, but I definitely would recommend her to anybody. Want to sell a house because Brandi is really good. I was very very pleased. Thank you!!!”
“There is not enough space to give Amy the credit she deserves. When we bought our first home, we had minimal communication with our prior realtor and so many questions and unknowns when starting the buying process again. Amy answered every call, text and random question with full transparency. When going to different houses, Amy never pressured to buy and would point out possible things to consider. Having her support and guidance throughout this buying/selling process was amazing and we are so grateful!”
