Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).

Inventory in Accent has tightened over the past year even as supply has recently expanded. Active listings are down almost 15% year over year, yet months of supply has climbed to about 4.2 months, well above the roughly 3.7 months seen across Des Moines. Contract activity has cooled, with homes sold down nearly 40% and pending sales down about 10% compared with a year ago in this rolling three-month view.

Prices have been relatively steady in this shifting environment. The typical home value is slightly higher than a year ago, and the median list price has inched up as well, rising less than 1% year over year. Sellers are still achieving strong results, with the average sale-to-list ratio up more than 2% from last year and about 23% of recent sales closing above the asking price.

Speed of sale shows buyers must still move with purpose on desirable homes. The median days on market has dropped to around 11 days, down noticeably from a year ago, and nearly half of homes go off the market within two weeks. With Accent positioned as a seller-leaning market but with more breathing room than in prior years, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who understands these local trends.



Learn more about what Accent has to offer.

Accent offers residents a walkable, community-focused urban vibe with diverse dining, frequent local events, and easy access to parks and everyday conveniences.

Accent in Des Moines stands out from nearby neighborhoods by offering a quiet, well kept residential pocket with quick access to city amenities and major employers. While areas closer to downtown or West Des Moines lean busier and more commercial, Accent feels distinctly neighborhood focused, with tree lined streets and a practical, everyday convenience that appeals to long term residents and new arrivals alike.

Families appreciate proximity to neighborhood schools supported by Des Moines Public Schools, as well as easy access to broader educational and cultural options in Des Moines. Nearby parks and green spaces managed by Des Moines Parks and Recreation offer places to unwind, while destinations like Gray’s Lake Park and the downtown Principal Riverwalk are a short drive away. Everyday errands are simple, with shopping and dining choices in neighboring Beaverdale and Merle Hay, and a broader mix of services throughout the Polk County area.

In a neighborhood like Accent, timing and preparation matter. Buyers who understand current inventory and neighborhood trends can act quickly when the right home appears. Sellers who prepare thoughtfully and price according to local conditions are more likely to attract serious interest. Agent Pronto connects you with a real estate professional who knows Accent well, so both buyers and sellers can move forward with confidence.

“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.”

“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! 🏡❤️”

“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.”

“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!”

“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.”

“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!”

“To whom it my concern, It is our immense pleasure to recommend Viola Salvato as a real estate agent for any individual or family searching for the ideal home. Viola had an initial meeting with us regarding our specific needs in a home as well as our budgetary limits. She is highly talented and immediately found us numerous listings of homes. She did not waste our time with homes that were not in line with our needs. Viola is a master with contract negotiation she came up with a deal that was good for us as well as making the seller happy. She knows the area like the back of her hand and there is nothing that escapes her attention when it comes to properties for sale in this area. We found Viola to be a highly attentive agent, almost as if we were her only customers, although we know that was not the case. She returned all phone calls and emails the same day. We never felt neglected or unimportant. She also is highly personable with an engaging personality. She is hands down the best!”

“Dakotah was amazing to work with! Dakotah was referred to us by someone and we will continue to refer him to others. Knowledgeable about the Des Moines area and homes in the area. Always felt that Dakotah was looking out for us as first time home buyers and helped us explain the home buying process in great detail. When we do decide to sell our incredible home, we will surely work with Dakotah again!”

“When we inherited a house, we weren’t sure what to do next. Justin helped walk us thru the process and get a full price offer. We had a few snags along the way and Justin stepped in to handle and give advice. We appreciate Justin’s patience and responsiveness during this whole process. He was amazing and we would highly recommend!”

“I work for a new construction builder in the Des Moines metro. Crossed paths with Kristina as her buyers were looking into a townhome in Altoona. We quickly had great conversation and she simply gave me the time of day. She made me feel heard and appreciated from day 1 all the way till closing on her buyers' home. She is knowledgeable, professional, outgoing and extremely personable. I would definitely recommend her to any unrepresented buyers or friends and family. We worked extremely well together. She was awesome!”

“I am particular with what I like and don’t like. John was very patient. Each time we would look at a house he would check to see if this is what we liked, could we see ourselves in the home. Any concerns I had, John was always prompt to follow up with me. I felt like at the time I was his only client.”

“Toren was absolutely great with our home buying process. He is very knowledgeable when it comes to buying a new home. He was non-biased and gave us honest input, regardless of the condition of the home. He took our family into consideration, we have a one year old, and a small dog. Toren always kept that in mind when he was showing us a home. He was always flexible and found time for us, regardless of the situation. 10/10 would (and will) recommend him to any friend or family member that needs a realtor.”
