“We cannot recommend Shelly Crane highly enough! We've worked with Shelly for both buying and selling homes, and every experience with her has been exceptional. Shelly is knowledgeable, professional, incredibly responsive, and genuinely cares about the people she works with. She has always made us feel like a priority, kept us informed every step of the way, and made what can be a stressful process feel easy and manageable. She's the kind of realtor you can trust to answer your questions honestly, advocate for you, pay attention to the details, and make sure nothing falls through the cracks. What really sets Shelly apart though, is how personal the experience feels You never feel like you're just another transaction. She takes the time to understand what you want and need, and you know she truly has your best interests at heart. There's simply no one else we would choose. Whether you're buying or selling, Shelly is exactly the person you want in your corner!”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).
Lawrence home values in this rolling three-month view are up solidly from a year ago, with the typical home value rising about 8 percent. Median list prices are also higher year over year, though by a smaller margin. At the same time, the share of homes selling above list has slipped slightly from last year.
Buyers are seeing more breathing room than in past years. Months of supply has climbed to 5.5, more than doubling compared with a year earlier, and median days on market have stretched to around 40 days, up sharply from last summer. This adds up to more options and a bit more time for shoppers, even though the market gauge still classifies Lawrence as a seller’s market.
Looking at the latest period, there are 617 active listings, with 339 new listings and 169 homes sold in the most recent three months. Pending sales are down more than 15 percent year over year, pointing to cooler demand even as values edge higher. About 25 percent of homes are still selling above list, and the average sale-to-list ratio is just under 100 percent, showing that well-priced homes can command strong offers. Whether you are a buyer navigating these shifting conditions or a seller aiming to price effectively, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local agent who understands the Lawrence market.
