Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).
Year over year, Meredith’s rolling three-month typical home value has dropped notably, down about a third compared with last year. At the same time, median list prices have edged slightly higher, suggesting sellers are still aiming above where recent sales are closing. Inventory has expanded compared with a year ago, while the share of homes selling above list has fallen to zero, reflecting less intense bidding.
Looking at the latest rolling three-month period ending in July 2026, the typical home value sits around $223,000 with a median list price near $282,000. Homes are taking longer to sell, with the median days on market up sharply from last year to 23 days, and months of supply has risen to about 2.9, signaling more options for buyers even though the area is still classified as a seller’s market.
Sales activity in Meredith shows some crosscurrents, with homes sold down year over year while new listings are up nearly a third and pending sales have slipped. About half of homes are going off the market within two weeks, yet the average sale-to-list ratio has eased to just over 97 percent, indicating buyers have a bit more room to negotiate than in past years. Compared with the broader Des Moines market, Meredith’s prices are similar but with slightly more supply, and both buyers and sellers can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who understands these shifting conditions.

“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!”

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!”
