Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Elkhart County real estate market. *
September 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Inventory in Elkhart County has expanded, giving buyers more to choose from. Active listings are up nearly 19 percent from last year, and new listings have also increased year over year. Despite that, pending sales and closed sales are both down compared with a year ago, showing slower contract flow even as more homes come on the market.
Pricing is adjusting to this shift in activity. The typical home value is up slightly, about 2 percent higher than last year, but it slipped nearly 7 percent from August to September. Sellers are also seeing fewer bidding wars, with only about one in five homes selling above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio hovering just under 99 percent.
Homes are taking a bit longer to sell, with the median days on market rising to 26, and months of supply climbing to 2.7, though conditions still lean toward sellers and are similar to the statewide inventory level. Compared with Indiana overall, Elkhart County has slightly lower typical prices and a similar balance between supply and demand. With contract activity easing and pricing moving more cautiously, it is increasingly important to have local expertise. Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands these trends and can help them navigate their next move in Elkhart County.
Elkhart County offers residents a strong mix of manufacturing heritage, abundant outdoor recreation, vibrant local businesses, good schools, and a welcoming, family-friendly community.
Elkhart County stands out from nearby St. Joseph County and LaGrange County with its blend of global RV manufacturing strength, Amish country heritage, and an active arts and music scene. From the riverfront streets of Elkhart and the tree lined neighborhoods of Goshen to quieter rural townships, residents share a strong sense of community rooted in craftsmanship and faith traditions.
Weekends often revolve around local experiences. Families explore the Wellfield Botanic Gardens or bike the Pumpkinvine Nature Trail maintained by Elkhart County Parks. In Goshen, the Downtown Goshen district hosts regular events, galleries, and independent restaurants. Music lovers appreciate the heritage celebrated at the RV/MH Hall of Fame and Museum, while students and lifelong learners have access to resources like Elkhart Public Library.
Housing options range from historic homes near walkable downtowns to new subdivisions and country properties on acreage. Proximity to Kosciusko County lake country and easy access to regional employers create steady demand that can shift quickly with interest rates and inventory.
Whether you are planning a move into or out of Elkhart County, timing and preparation matter. The right local agent will help you interpret neighborhood level trends, prepare a competitive offer or listing strategy, and coordinate each step so you are ready when the ideal opportunity appears. Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with a real estate professional who fits their goals.

“From the very beginning of making him self very available to look at listings with us before we even decided to go with him and giving him a 15 minute heads up through the ups and downs of houses he had our backs and accomadated us how ever we needed!”
“Dawn has been our realtor for 6 trasnactions in the last 6 years. She has tackled every obstical we have put in front of her with exelence. She has represented us as a buyer and seller of residential, comercial and industrial properties. Dawn has always brought a clear plan, solid execution and consise advise to us on both sides of the sale. She will take the time to discuss all the scenerios and she is not afraid to do whatever it takes for who she is representing. That is why Dawn Brown has and will continue to be our go to realtor.”
“We absolutely loved having Patty as our realtor!! She was very kind, knowledgeable, and very helpful. We wouldn't have wanted anyone else!”
“Dennis helped sell a tough one due to itss age and needed repairs, he didnt shy away tho and took it on, great work”
“We couldn't be more grateful to Jamonte McCarey for guiding us through the process of buying our new home. From start to finish, Jamonte demonstrated outstanding professionalism, deep market knowledge, and genuine care for our needs. What stood out the most was his responsiveness, patience, and clear communication every step of the way. Jamonte made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth, transparent, and completely manageable. We highly recommend Jamonte McCarey to anyone looking for a trusted, skilled, and truly dedicated real estate professional. Thank you so much, Jamonte, for helping us find our home!”
“Tyler was such a delight to work with. He absolutely listened to all of my concerns and needs when looking for a home. Tyler was easy to communicate with and always available for answering my questions. His professionalism outshines any other agent I have ever known. Tyler always kept me up-to-date with any and all progression during my home buying experience. I couldn't have asked for anyone better because I don't think someone out there exists. Thank you Tyler!”
“Lisa was extremely knowledgeable and helpful with purchasing our new home. She went above and beyond her responsibilities by showing us several houses on the market and pointing out any flaws in said homes that might cause us problems at a later date. We greatly appreciated that. She also spent money out of her own pocket to pay for lawn items that we had agreed to buy from the previous owner (we sent her a check to cover the price, of course) when she could have simply told the previous owner we would pay when we got to our new home. That made it easier on both the previous owner and us as we weren't going to take possession for approximately a month after closing. She also agreed to furnish the keys to a relative of ours who lives in another town so we wouldn't have to track them down. I would highly recommend Lisa to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”
“Michele Burkheimer was absolutely amazing in helping us find and purchase our dream home! From the very beginning, she listened to what we were looking for, understood what was important to us, and was always there when we needed her. Buying a home can be stressful, but Michele made the entire process feel smooth and manageable. Her knowledge, attention to detail, responsiveness, and genuine care for her clients really set her apart. She worked hard to make sure we understood every step and helped us navigate the process with confidence. We couldn’t be happier with our new home, and we are so thankful that Michele was the one by our side to help us make it happen. If you’re looking for a realtor who truly cares about her clients and goes above and beyond, we highly recommend Michele Burkheimer!”
“Barketa is fantastic! She walked with us and pointed out things that maybe an issue. She was great at figuring out what met our needs. Barketa is straightforward and honest. We felt super comfortable when working with her. Barketa is a wonderful agent and if we have anything like this again, I would 100% work with her again. I would recommend her to anyone looking in the area”
“Jason helped my wife and I purchase our second home. He was awesome to work with from beginning to end of our home purchase! He was patient and happy to tour all the homes on our list. He wasnt pushy at all, which I loved. He let us be during showings but was ready to answer any questions. He definitely gained my trust at one point when there was a house we were potentially very interested in. Turned out it was in a pretty bad area that might not be immediately apparent. He could've let us make an uninformed decision but did the right thing by providing us additional information in good faith, instead of just trying to close a sale. We toured houses in several towns around the Fort Wayne area, and he had a lot of knowledge around all the different places. He was very on top of the process and kept us in the loop frequently so we never missed details or were kept waiting, and when repairs or anything was needed he was very quick to act and make things happen. The whole experience was streamlined and painless compared to the first time we bought a home. 10/10 will work with him again if we ever buy again or sell in his area!”
“David always went out of his way to satisfy all my questions and concerns. He also always made sure I was getting the most out of buying and selling and I really appreciated that. We shot for the moon and I got exactly what I was looking for. This was a verily nice transition and he made it very easy.”
“I moved from Virginia to Indiana and Cheryl was exactly what I needed to make the transition a smooth and comfortable one. She kept me apprised throughout the contract and purchasing process without prompting. This was crucial considering all that I needed to accomplish for my new job and with my family.”
“Derek did what no one else could do! He has my house sold within days of looking at it. He communicated with me on everything that I needed to know. Derek is AMAZING! I highly recommend him for your real-estate needs!”
“Gisele is not only an excellent realtor, she is a good person. She guided us through the process of selling our home with patience, understanding, compassion and professionalism. Her multi-decade experience of living and selling homes within the Michiana area worked to our advantage as our home sold within three days of listing. I understand this is not a common experience, but I believe it is proof positive of her approach. While another realtor was representing the buyers, Gisele agreed to show them our home in her place. As a result, she was able to secure a full asking price offer from them. It might be easy to assume our asking price was too low, but we arrived at the number as a result of her knowledge of the market as well as providing us with pricing on comparable homes with the area. Overall, you could not work with a better real estate agent or a better person than Gisele. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell or buy a home!!”
“Working with Kim and team was an absolute pleasure. We were under a really tight crunch and Kim helped us secure a really nice home and was able to assist in closing a couple of weeks earlier which was extremely helpful to us. I recommend the Skibowski team to anyone looking for a home, they did an amazing job. "Kim, we love the home, thank you for everything you did for us."”
“The sale was stress-free and Amber really helped us get things ready.”
“Tanya did a wonderful job! She was very helpful when it came to answering all of my questions! I appreciate her communicating with me and walking me through the whole process. I highly recommend!”
“Super friendly!! Definitely felt at ease with her and Cindy! It was one of the best feelings knowing we had just found our 4EverHome! Will definitely refer everyone I know that is looking to buy!”
“Jason went above and beyond to help us sell our house and also find our dream forever home. We couldn't be more pleased with how he kept in contact with us and kept us updated every step of the way. Would highly recommend him 100%”
“Very professional—delivered when and what he promised. Was expert in negotiating with potential buyer's agent when there was a second offer. What he did during negotiations led to a much better sales price. There were no problems and I got more that list price—what more could a person ask for?”
