Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Montgomery 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).
Montgomery County is seeing moderate for-sale inventory with 131 active listings in September, down slightly from last year. Buyer activity has cooled, as homes sold fell nearly 12 percent year over year and pending sales are down about 22 percent. New listings have also pulled back, dropping around 24 percent from a year ago, which is keeping supply from building too quickly.
Prices are still rising compared with last year even as activity slows. The typical home value is up a little more than 9 percent year over year, and the median list price is roughly 6 percent higher than a year ago, outpacing the statewide price growth of about 5 percent in Kentucky.
Homes are taking longer to sell, with the median days on market climbing to 88 days, a jump of about 37 percent from last year. Months of supply has increased to 4, up nearly 39 percent year over year, yet the market still leans toward sellers, reflected in a seller’s market gauge and an average sale-to-list price near 98 percent. A growing share of homes, about one in four, is now selling above list price, indicating that well-priced properties can still draw strong offers. In this shifting environment, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting with a local agent who understands these dynamics.
Montgomery County offers residents a welcoming, close-knit community, affordable living, abundant outdoor recreation, solid schools, and real opportunities for work and personal growth.
Montgomery County stands out from nearby Fayette and Clark counties with its blend of small‑town familiarity and true regional access. Anchored by Mount Sterling, the county offers easy connections to Lexington and Winchester while keeping a close community feel that locals value.
Daily life often revolves around local gatherings at places like the Montgomery County Public Library and ballfields at the Montgomery County Parks & Recreation facilities. Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate proximity to Daniel Boone National Forest and the rolling countryside, which support both traditional farms and newer residential developments. Families look closely at Montgomery County Schools, known for active sports programs and community support on Friday nights.
Historic downtown Mount Sterling features local dining such as Cattleman’s Roadhouse and seasonal events tied to the county’s long agricultural heritage. Nearby Clark County and Bourbon County offer additional job centers and cultural options, broadening choices for commuters while keeping home life grounded in Montgomery County.
Whether you are preparing to list a long‑time family home or planning a move into the area, timing and preparation matter in this evolving market.

“Devin was absolutely incredible in this entire home buying process! She answered every question we had promptly, is very knowledgeable and thorough, and very sweet! We can’t thank her enough for all her support!!”
“Jennifer has helped us buy 2 houses. I want to speak to her commitment well after the sale. We just went through a re-fi and received an appraisal well below market. Upon doing an appeal/reconsideration Jennifer helped us with 6 comparables for submission. This was key in our appraisal appeal being corrected to get the appraisal we were due. This shows her loyalty beyond the sale and how she knows the market and is willing to help people right a wrong!”
“Darian is so nice, responsive, and very knowledgeable. She eased my anxiety as a first time homebuyer and made the process as fluid as home buying can be. I highly recommend her and will absolutely use her in the future if we ever decide to sell our house and upgrade.”
“We never expected to find someone as dedicated and hard-working as Brandon. ?He put a buyer’s best interest first and demonstrates value and professionalism from answering our late-night texts to scrambling at the last minute to get our offer in on the house. He truly went above and beyond every single step of the way. We love our new home, and we wouldn't be standing right now if it weren't for his grit, knowledge, and heart. We will gladly recommend him to every single friend, family member, or neighbor we know who is looking to buy or sell. Thank you for making what could have been a stressful process feel like an exciting adventure!!”
“The experience with Oxana was excellent. We are very happy with our house thanks to the great help she gave us. We would not have achieved this without her patience and support. She made the process easier.”
“Terra is amazing! She made us feel completely supported throughout the entire process, and we never, ever felt pushed to settle. She quickly understood what we were looking for and skillfully guided us through several showings via FaceTime while we were moving from out of state. Terra is a shrewd negotiator and an amazing problem solver - she always has a Plan B, and sometimes even a Plan C, up her sleeve! We really felt that she had our back throughout the process, and her expertise and persistence made a huge difference. We are extremely happy with her services and would recommend her without any hesitation!”
“We were looking to upsize and find a bigger home in Lexington, KY, and Mohamed made the whole process much easier for us. He helped us find a home that we really liked and was able to negotiate with the seller to cover most of our closing costs. He also negotiated several repairs that came up during the home inspection. Mohamed was knowledgeable, helpful, and always looking out for our best interests throughout the process. We’re very happy with our new home and the outcome he was able to get for us. We would definitely recommend Mohamed to anyone looking to buy a home in Lexington or anywhere in Kentucky.”

“Shannon did an OUTSTANDING job listing my Moms home and then finding the perfect house for her. She went above and beyond, didn’t natter if it was a holiday, a weekend of anytime of the day if I had a question or concern Shannon was on it.

She’s so dedicated to her job, her team as well as involved in the community. Shannon loves to shop local and will give the best advice on anything. So, from the listing to the closing table her dedication made it so easy. Shannon is the absolute best! I will deal with nobody but her.”

“Highly Recommend! Exceptional Service from Start to Finish! I cannot say enough great things about Jordan! From the very first consultation to the closing of my home, they made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Their deep knowledge of the market and attention to detail was evident throughout the entire experience. They provided excellent advice on pricing, staging, and marketing my home, and it sold quickly at a great price! What really set Jordan apart was their professionalism, responsiveness, and dedication. They were always available to answer any questions, offer guidance, and keep me updated on every step of the process. It was clear that they truly cared about getting the best possible outcome for me. My situation was not a typical one and Jordan was on top of it from the start. The shutdown affected my sale and Jordan still reached out often to keep me informed and let me know that everything was still going as planned. If you're looking for a realtor who is not only knowledgeable but also personable and trustworthy, I highly recommend Jordan. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you for everything!”
