Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).
Martensdale’s rolling three-month figures show a very tight pool of homes for sale. Active listings are holding at just 3 properties, while only 2 new listings entered the market and 1 sale went under contract. Even with limited options, closings picked up, with 3 homes sold in this recent period.
Contract activity and inventory shifts are affecting how long homes stay on the market. The median days on market dropped to 31 days, down sharply from 80 days just a month earlier and well below many prior periods. Months of supply also moved down to 1.1, signaling conditions that continue to lean toward sellers despite some cooling in other indicators.
Pricing is adjusting in response to these dynamics. The typical home value over the rolling three months is about $164,900, down significantly from a year earlier, while the median list price has climbed more than 30 percent year over year to around $217,900, indicating sellers are still aiming higher on asking prices. Just over one-third of recent sales closed above list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio sits near 95 percent, showing some room for negotiation compared with prior periods. With low inventory, shifting prices, and changing time-on-market patterns, both buyers and sellers in Martensdale can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding a local agent who understands these trends.
Learn more about what Martensdale has to offer.
Martensdale offers residents a tight-knit community, convenient local amenities, and a welcoming small-town atmosphere that makes everyday life here feel comfortable and connected.
Martensdale stands apart from nearby communities like Des Moines and Indianola by offering a compact small-town setting with quick access to big-city employment, dining, and entertainment along Highway 92 and Interstate 35. Residents value knowing their neighbors, short commute times, and a slower pace without feeling isolated from regional amenities.
Daily life often centers on local schools and youth activities. The Martensdale-St Marys Community School District provides a single campus that anchors community events and athletics. Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate the nearby Great Western Trail for biking and walking between Martensdale and neighboring towns, and families make regular use of Warren County’s park system through the Warren County Conservation Board. Public services and planning information are accessible through the Warren County website, which is helpful for anyone considering a move or building project.
Dining and errands often combine local stops with options in West Des Moines, giving residents flexibility without sacrificing rural character. The community’s size means that homes can move quickly when priced and presented well, especially those with updates and usable outdoor space.
With inventory and demand shifting across the greater Warren County region, timing and preparation matter for both buyers and sellers in Martensdale. Agent Pronto can connect you with a local real estate professional who understands this market and can help you navigate your next move.

“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!”
