Hammond’s rolling three-month figures point to a cooling but still active market compared with a year ago. Typical home values are down about 5 percent year over year, even as the median list price has moved roughly 6 percent higher. At the same time, homes are taking longer to sell, with median days on market up about 29 percent and months of supply rising more than two-thirds.
Looking at the latest rolling period through September 2026, buyers are seeing a typical home value around $229,000 with a median list price near $235,000. Inventory stands at 108 active listings and roughly 6.8 months of supply, which indicates more options than earlier this year. Sales activity has slowed, with 35 homes sold and 32 pending, and the share of properties selling above list has slipped to just under 3 percent.
Pricing power has shifted somewhat, as the average sale-to-list ratio has eased to about 93 percent, suggesting more room for negotiation. Longer marketing times, combined with fewer sales and pending contracts than a year ago, give buyers added leverage while asking prices still reflect seller expectations. In this kind of mixed environment, Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with a Hammond agent who understands these trends and can help them navigate the current conditions effectively.
