The typical home value in North Kensington is projected to be $352,500 for the month of March. February’s finalized data reported the typical value of a home in the city to be $650,000—up 12.44% over the previous 12 months. For comparison, county-level data pegged home values at $595,000 in Montgomery County for the most recent reporting period. That number is expected to float around $596,530 in March.
North Kensington had 11 new listings and 9 listings that went under contract in February, increasing the area’s total available inventory to 15—up 15.38% from the previous month. Inventory is projected to have further increased in March.
Of those 15 active listings, 26.67% reduced their price in the month of February. The median listing price for homes in North Kensington grew 27.23% from January to February, bringing the current median listing price to $584,000. Based on projected data for March, listing prices may continue to grow.
The number of days that homes have been on the market prior to going under contract fell year-over-year. In February 2026, the median time for a listed property to go pending was 57 days, compared to 80 days in February 2025. However, in recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be rising. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this March.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
