Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Jackson County real estate market. *
September 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Inventory in Jackson County has been building, with active listings up to 51 in September and nearly 39 percent higher than a year ago. At the same time, months of supply has climbed to 10.3, well above Kentucky’s 3.9 months, underscoring a clear buyer’s market where homes are staying available longer.
Contract activity shows mixed momentum, as homes sold dropped to 4 in September but are still more than double last year’s level, while pending sales are up about 79 percent year over year. New listings have also risen sharply, climbing more than 46 percent from a year ago, which continues to add options for buyers and increases competition among sellers.
Pricing has reacted to these conditions with notable shifts, as the typical home value has jumped about 66 percent year over year even while the median list price is up a more modest 6 percent. Sellers are still achieving strong results with an average sale-to-list ratio near 99 percent and about a quarter of homes selling above asking, yet the median days on market has stretched to 118, up about 27 percent from last year. Whether you are a buyer looking to navigate ample inventory or a seller aiming to price correctly in this evolving environment, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local agent who understands how to work these trends to your advantage.

“Derrick Simpson is knowledgeable about house construction as well as the market, and even enlisted the opinions of other realtors to set the initial price. This was helpful as we could feel confident that the price was a consensus of experts. Derrick communicated each step and gave us options for our responses; but let us choose the desired outcome. Most importantly, Derrick negotiated with the prospective buyers and saved us many $ thousands. I wholeheartedly recommend Derrick to anyone looking to buy or sell.”
