Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Waterloo real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Year-over-year trends in Waterloo show striking movement, with typical home values up 77.74 percent compared with a 10.6 percent gain in DeKalb County overall. While the county’s typical home value sits around $240,000, Waterloo has climbed slightly higher to about $243,500, signaling faster appreciation in the city than in the surrounding area.
In March 2026, inventory in Waterloo reached 5 homes, up 25 percent from the prior month and about 66.67 percent higher than a year ago. Homes are moving quickly at a median of just 3 days on market, and with an average sale-to-list ratio of 1.0 and no recent sales above asking, pricing appears closely aligned with buyer expectations.
Looking ahead to April 2026, typical home values in Waterloo are projected to rise to about $300,250, while the median list price is expected to shift toward $45,375 and inventory to hold steady at 5 homes. With only 1 new listing and 1 pending sale in the latest month and a Neutral Market reading of 50, conditions suggest a balance of power between buyers and sellers, and Agent Pronto can connect both sides with a local agent who understands these shifts.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
