Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Barbourville currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge reading a seller’s market at 22. High inventory tells a different story, as months of supply has climbed to 9.6 in this rolling three-month view. Homes are also spending a median of 79 days on the market, only slightly faster than a year ago.
Prices have moved noticeably higher over the past year. The typical home value over the latest three months is up more than 39 percent year over year, even as the median list price is only modestly higher than a year ago. This mix of stronger sale prices and relatively restrained asking prices suggests buyers and sellers have been negotiating more, reflected in an average sale-to-list ratio of about 93 percent.
Activity levels are shifting as well. New listings have surged more than 140 percent from a year earlier and active listings are up over 40 percent, even though homes sold in the period dipped slightly and months of supply increased more than sixfold. Pending sales, however, are up nearly 30 percent year over year, showing that demand is still present when homes are priced and presented well. With only about one in five homes selling above list price and most taking several weeks to go under contract, both buyers and sellers in Barbourville can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate agent to navigate today’s conditions.
