Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Homes in the Southwest Area have been moving very quickly in this rolling three-month view, with a median of just 3 days on the market, down sharply from 15 days a few months ago and lower than a year ago. This rapid pace lines up with an extremely tight supply, as months of supply has fallen compared with last year and now sits at only 0.9, reinforcing its status as a seller’s market. Despite that speed, the number of homes actually sold has edged up slightly year over year, suggesting buyers are still finding opportunities. Many listings are going under contract quickly, and a large share leave the market within two weeks.
Prices have been relatively stable over the past year, with the typical home value near $175,000 and only a slight year-over-year increase. List prices have climbed more noticeably compared with last year, while sale prices have not risen as fast, hinting that buyers still have some room to negotiate. Even so, the share of homes selling above list price has grown significantly from a year ago, and the average sale-to-list ratio is very close to 100 percent.
Inventory has tightened compared with last year, as active listings are down even though new listings have held fairly steady in this rolling three-month window. Pending sales are up year over year, reinforcing the sense of strong demand relative to supply. With this mix of fast sales, limited inventory, and firm pricing, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who knows how to navigate the Southwest Area market.

Southwest Area in Cedar Rapids tends to attract buyers who value space, affordability, and everyday convenience.

Families are drawn to access to schools in the Cedar Rapids Community School District and nearby recreation at Tuma Soccer Complex. Commuters benefit from quick connections to Downtown Cedar Rapids and the airport, making the Southwest Area a practical choice if you split your time between city amenities and regional travel.

Hometown Realty
“Hands down the best realtor I've ever worked with. Matt truly cares that his clients find what they're actually looking for, not just closing a sale. On the buying side, he was great at pointing out concerning items during showings, and he was especially valuable during our blue tape walkthrough on our new house. He was clearly on our side the whole time and helped keep communication with the builder clear and moving. He also did a fantastic job selling our previous home. Matt is professional, respectful, and genuinely easy to work with. I'd recommend him to anyone buying or selling, and we'll be calling him again next time.”
Berkshire Hathaway Iowa Realty Mills Crossing
“I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better realtor. From the very beginning, I felt like I was working with someone who genuinely cared about me and what I was looking for—not just someone trying to close a deal. Isaiah was always there when I had questions, he kept me informed throughout the process, and made me feel comfortable even when things got stressful. I really appreciated his patience, honesty, and willingness to go the extra mile. Buying a home can be overwhelming, but having the right person by your side makes such a difference. I’m so grateful for all their help and for making the whole experience such a positive one. I would absolutely recommend Isaiah Thomas to anyone looking to buy or sell a home! 🏡❤️”

“Mike did an excellent job helping us with the purchase of our home. The process was made smooth and easy with his experience and professionalism. He was understanding and made sure we knew and understood all of the steps being taken.”
Better Homes & Gardens Real Estate Good Life Group
“Matt was excellent throughout the entire process of helping me buy my duplex. He made the transaction incredibly smooth, took the time to walk me through every step, and was always available to answer my questions. I always felt confident knowing he was there to guide me from start to finish. What impressed me most was that his commitment didn't end after closing. I initially hired a property management company to lease the duplex, but after several months they were unable to find tenants. I reached out to Matt, and he had the property leased within a week. That really showed me how knowledgeable, responsive, and dedicated he is. I highly recommend Matt to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate. He truly goes above and beyond for his clients, and I wouldn't hesitate to work with him again.”

“He did an outstanding job for just starting in the business. He sold my house in under a month of being on the market. He then helped me search the surrounding area to find my current home.”

“Daniel Wandling was amazing to work with, especially when it came to helping my parents find the right home. What really stood out was his ability to find an off-market property that we wouldn’t have found on our own. That made a huge difference and gave us an opportunity we didn’t even know existed. He was very professional, responsive, and made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. He always took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure we felt confident in every decision. You can tell he truly cares about his clients and goes above and beyond to help them. I would highly recommend Daniel to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”

“We were really pleased with Joe Hoagland's service. He responded quickly with any questions, made time in his schedule to show various homes when we were in Omaha. Joe even FaceTimed with us, at times when we could not be in Omaha, to show us homes we were interested in. He met with our daughter and son to view homes and FaceTimed with us. Joe was also very honest with us. Often times, he noticed little imperfections that were not obvious to us. He advised us on offering prices. Joe was the exact type of realtor for us! He was a pleasure to work with!”
Berkshire Hathaway Ambassador Real Estate
“As a first time buyer, I was nervous of what to expect from a realtor. Rob absolutely exceeded my expectations of real estate agents— from the first day we met I could tell he genuinely cared about the state of the homes we looked at. He got me an awesome basket of gifts on closing day filled with home essentials. Thank you Rob! You’re excellent!”

“Luann, is great to work with very friendly. She made me feel comfortable and helped with each step easy. If you need a house fast go with her as she knows Waterloo very well in what areas are the best to purchase. Her office space is beautiful as well and we closed at her office. She will make you feel like a friend of hers and wants what is best for you and your home. Reach out to her for any buying or purchasing needs.”
Realty ONE Group Movement
“Lacie was amazing throughout the whole buying experience as a first-time home owner. She made every effort to keep me informed during our buying process and shown her expertise when any questions arose. When there were some questions she couldn't answer she was able to defer me to the appriorate subject-matter expert whether it was an electrician for electrical questions/work to inspection questions. She was absolutely fantastic to work with and would highly recommend her to friends and family that are looking to buy/sell now and later! Thank you Lacie Shelby for working with my partner and I. Thank you even more for making our first home purchase worth it!”
