Year over year, Harrison County’s typical home value is slightly lower, down just over 1 percent, while Kentucky overall has seen prices rise. Median list prices in the county, however, are up sharply from a year ago by nearly 17 percent, signaling sellers’ higher price expectations. At the same time, homes sold have dropped by about 45 percent compared with last September, pointing to a cooler pace of closed sales.
In the latest September snapshot, the median sale price sits around $248,000, below the state’s roughly $284,000 median. Inventory has shifted notably, with months of supply in Harrison County climbing to 8, far above Kentucky’s 3.9 months, suggesting more options for buyers locally than in the broader state market.
Conditions on the ground also show longer marketing times and more negotiation room. The median days on market has risen to 77 days, up sharply from last month and more than a year ago, and the average sale-to-list price ratio has eased to about 93 percent, with no recent sales closing above list price. Even with active listings down more than 20 percent from last year, buyers still face a slower, more deliberate market, while sellers must price carefully and plan for longer timelines. Both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto connecting them with a Harrison County agent who understands these changing dynamics.
