Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Q2 2026).
Year-over-year, Universal’s rolling three-month data shows a sharp climb in values, with the typical home value more than tripling compared with a year ago. At the same time, the number of homes sold in this period is down by about half, underscoring how a small pool of recent sales is driving those higher prices.
Looking at the latest rolling three-month window ending in August 2026, the typical home value sits around $244,800 and the median price per square foot is about $42. The median days on market dropped steeply to just 23 days, down more than 65 percent from a year earlier, signaling that the few homes that do hit the market tend to move relatively quickly.
Inventory conditions remain tight, with only one active listing and just one home sold in this recent period, even as the market gauge points to a strong seller’s market. Homes are closing at about 94 percent of list price and none in this window sold above asking, so pricing strategy still matters. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate low inventory, shifting prices, and fast-moving listings can turn to Agent Pronto to find an agent who understands Universal’s dynamics.

“This was our second time working with Nicole and I would use her again. She is very knowledgeable of the area and very well connected. She responds quickly to our calls and spends the time needed to make sure everything goes well. Nicole is one of the very best realtors in the zionsville area, if not the best. I will be recommending her to all my family and friends.”
“Alyssa was great to work with. She listed our OREO property for sale which are not the best properties, kept me informed and it sold fairly quickly. I would recommend her to all my family, friends and co workers.”
“I had the pleasure of working with Amy Gordon from Century 21 Elite during the purchase of my new home, and I honestly could not have asked for a better Realtor. From the very beginning, Amy was professional, responsive, patient, and genuinely committed to helping me find the right home—not simply getting a deal closed. My purchase had plenty of moving parts, including negotiations, inspections, repair concerns, amendments to the purchase agreement, and more than a few stressful moments along the way. Amy stayed on top of everything and helped keep the process moving forward. What I appreciated most was that I always felt like Amy was looking out for my interests. She was willing to answer questions, explain what was happening, communicate with the sellers and other parties involved, and help me work through each decision without ever making me feel pressured. I would absolutely recommend Amy Gordon to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Thank you, Amy, for everything you did for me.”

“This is the second property that we've sold with Rebekah in the previous year. As with our first experience, we truly have no notes for what Rebekah could have done better. In both instances she provided an action plan for items that were and weren't worth addressing prior to listing and in both cases her initial estimate is exactly what the property sold for, with little to no friction throughout the process. You won't find a better realtor and we will continue to work with her for all future endeavors.”
“I had a great experience working with my real estate agent to sell my home. He made the entire process so much easier and was always there whenever I had questions or needed help. He kept me informed throughout the whole process, was professional, knowledgeable, and truly worked hard to get my house sold. Selling a home can be stressful, but having someone you trust guiding you through it makes such a difference. I really appreciated everything he did for me and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”
