Information and statistics on the latest trends in the St. Landry Parish real estate market. *
July 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 (Jul 2026).
Inventory in St. Landry Parish has been edging up, with about 282 active listings in July and a small year-over-year increase. Months of supply has risen sharply to 8.3, much higher than Louisiana’s 5 months, signaling plenty of options for buyers. Contract activity is steady but not strong, as pending sales are roughly flat year over year while closed sales are down nearly 30 percent.
Prices are moving in a mixed direction as the market digests this slower pace. The typical home value is still up more than 25 percent from a year ago, yet the median list price has fallen by double digits over the same period, suggesting sellers are adjusting expectations to meet buyers where they are.
Homes are taking longer to sell, with the median days on market stretching past three months and up sharply from last year, consistent with a neutral market reading. Very few homes are selling above list price now, and the average sale-to-list ratio has slipped to just over 92 percent, indicating buyers have more room to negotiate than they did recently. With inventory high, pricing in flux, and pace uneven, both buyers and sellers in St. Landry Parish can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who understands these shifting dynamics.
St. Landry Parish offers residents a welcoming, close-knit community with rich cultural traditions, abundant outdoor and recreational opportunities, strong local businesses, and a practical, affordable quality of life.
St. Landry Parish stands apart from nearby Lafayette and Acadia Parish with a deeper rural heritage, a strong Creole and Cajun identity, and a pace that still feels authentically small town. In Opelousas, the parish seat, you will find historic homes near the Evangeline Downs Racetrack & Casino and cultural institutions like the Opelousas Museum & Interpretive Center, reflecting centuries of local history.
Smaller communities such as Eunice and Sunset offer a close community feel with local shops, family-owned restaurants, and regular festivals that highlight music and food. Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate the quiet bayous, nearby Louisiana Orphan Train Museum grounds, and parish parks that create opportunities for fishing, walking, and weekend gatherings. Families look to neighborhood schools and cultural programs, like those connected to the St. Landry Parish School Board, when deciding where to put down roots.
Housing options range from historic cottages in older neighborhoods to newer construction outside town centers, along with rural acreage that appeals to those seeking more space than in Lafayette. As the market shifts with regional growth, timing and preparation are essential. Whether you are planning to buy into this enduring community or sell and move on to your next chapter, Agent Pronto connects you with an agent who understands St. Landry Parish and can help you move at the right pace.

“Working with Tracy gave me peace and confidence when I was doubtful and unsure. Her professionalism reassured me that I was heading in the right direction. She listened about my requirements and I was impressed when she remembered.”
“We knew Mary was a knowledgeable and top listing agent in New Orleans/ Metairie area and would help us to sell our house quickly. She did! She also gave good guidance on what was needed to get the house ready to sell and was great to work with!”
“First impressions are everything, & Fred made an incredible one from the very beginning. I first spoke with him over a year ago when I wasn’t quite ready to make my home-buying move. His kindness, professionalism, & genuine care left such a lasting impression that I knew I wanted to work with him again when I was ready. Fred was honest, trustworthy, & extremely informative. He never allowed me to settle for a property simply because it looked nice on the surface. Instead, he took the time to make sure I understood every detail; always had my best interests at heart. He truly went above & beyond in every way possible to ensure I got the home I wanted. He was always willing to explain things, answer questions, & provide support whenever I needed it. Made my first home-buying experience smooth, stress-free. 😇 I am sooo happy that I found Fred, & if I had to do it all over again, I would choose him every single time. Thank you for making this such an amazing experience! ❤️”
“Agent Pronto got me in touch with Patricia Halley Conaghan. She is, hands down, one of the best real estate agents around. I am in Oregon so it was long distance relationship. The property was no where ready to sell when I first listed. Many e-mails, phone calls, texts, and photos later we were able to get this property ready to sell. She lined up contractors and oversaw the work. It did not take long to sell with some creative financing. I couldn't be happier than I am with Patricia's work and support. She is AWESOME!!”
“Melanie Cook was very responsive and also answer any questions you may ask..She will walk you through every step of the way”
“Very easy to use. The agent selected was Anna Dunn. She was perfect. She was helpful and helped me the entire way.”
“Selecting our realtor, Mr. Joseph Dupard, through Agent Pronto was a blessing. I needed to list some estate property and being out of state made this difficult....Mr. Joseph Dupard was the best decision. Mr. Dupard is very knowledgeable about the area, professional, prompt, provided information to help me make the best decisions, explained information in layman's terms, and was assessable. I highly recommend him because he cares about his clients and their needs. ”
“Jen Burns was the only realtor that reached out to me. She was great to work with. We inherited this house and live out of state. Jen was so helpful and patient with all of our questions. She always answered her phone or texted right back. We highly recommend Jen Burns. She made the process so easy!”
“Gina was very helpful throughout the process of preparing and selling my home. She provided honest and constructive advice and feedback with a great eye for detail. Her experience and knowledge of the current market was very helpful in pricing and negotiating during the initial phases and during offer negotiations. Even during the unknown expectations of the COVID 19 pandemic, Gina was very reassuring yet realistic. I would recommend Gina as a reliable, responsive agent.”
“Scott Delhom took great care of us both with the sale of our old home & the purchase of our new home. Our experience with Scott was so wonderful that I referred my parents to him & he helped them find a new home also. I would highly recommend Scott Delhom for all of anyone’s realtor needs.”
