Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Knox County currently leans toward buyers, with the local market gauge indicating a buyer's market compared with Kentucky overall. Months of supply sits at 4.9 versus the state’s 3.9 months, and homes are taking a median of 90 days to sell, signaling that buyers generally have more time and options.
Price trends show a mixed picture, helping explain this balance. The typical home value around $142,000 is down sharply from last month and about 19% lower than a year ago, while the median list price is up nearly 18% year over year, suggesting some sellers are still testing higher price points even as closed-sale values soften.
Activity on the ground highlights how dynamic conditions are. Homes sold jumped more than 68% compared with last year even as new listings fell about 22% and pending sales dropped roughly 18%, and only about 11% of sales closed above list price with an average sale-to-list ratio near 93%, indicating buyers retain negotiating power. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting conditions can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with an experienced local agent who understands Knox County’s numbers and nuances.
