Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Inventory in Birmingham has risen in this rolling three-month view, with active listings up slightly year over year and months of supply climbing to 3.5 from around 2.7 last fall. Fewer homes are changing hands, as homes sold are down more than 10 percent and pending sales have dropped by about one-fifth compared with a year ago. Properties are also staying on the market longer, with the median days on market up to 29 from the low 20s last September.
Pricing is showing resilience despite the slower contract flow. Typical home values are roughly 7 percent higher than a year ago, and the median list price has increased nearly 10 percent year over year, even as more inventory gives buyers additional options.
Seller leverage looks more balanced than in prior years. The share of homes selling above list price has edged down compared with last September, and the average sale-to-list ratio now sits just under 98 percent, pointing to modest negotiation rather than frequent bidding wars. Rolling three-month data also shows more homes taking at least two weeks to go under contract, underscoring the importance of thoughtful pricing and presentation. Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an experienced Birmingham agent who understands these trends and can help them navigate their next move with confidence.
Birmingham offers residents a vibrant, walkable downtown with boutique shopping, diverse dining, engaging cultural events, abundant green spaces, and a tight-knit sense of community that enhances everyday life.
Birmingham stands apart from nearby communities like Royal Oak and Bloomfield Township with its true downtown core and walkable, small-city feel. Residents prize the ability to stroll from historic homes and upscale condos to tree lined streets filled with boutiques, galleries, and dining. Places like Shain Park anchor community events, while the Birmingham Shopping District keeps the center lively day and night.
Families are often drawn by the reputation of Birmingham Public Schools, including Seaholm High School and Groves High School. The Baldwin Public Library serves as an intellectual and social hub, and the nearby Birmingham Country Club and local fitness studios support an active lifestyle. The city’s parks and the Rouge River trail network offer quiet escapes within minutes of downtown and easy access to regional options in Troy and Bloomfield Hills.
For homeowners, understanding subtle differences between downtown condos, rail district lofts, and established neighborhoods near Quarton Lake can have a real impact on pricing and timing. Buyers face a competitive, low inventory market where preparation and local insight matter. Connecting with the right Birmingham real estate agent through Agent Pronto helps both buyers and sellers make confident decisions and move at the right moment.

“By far the easiest transaction ever! I truly believe that Marty lives up to the hype! This experience was so smooth, quick, and painless that I can't even believe it was the sale of a house! Marty is a Rockstar! I cannot say enough good things. So grateful he was in my corner through the whole process and I'm thankful he exceeded every expectation. You absolutely are amazing Marty!”
“Kathy and Sue were easy to work with and helped answer all our questions along the way. We were able to list our home, sell, and close within a few weeks. We loved the way the house was staged and all of the continued communication from Kathy and Sue. This was a great selling experience.”
“David also had an existing relationship with my lender, which made the experience feel even more personal. Throughout the process, I felt like I was working with someone who genuinely cared about my best interests rather than just completing another transaction.”
“Tony helped me purchase my Berville rental property and was a strong advocate throughout the process. I appreciated his attention to the inspection and closing requirements and his willingness to push for clear answers. Highly recommend!”
“Anthony did an amazing job helping me purchase my property. Highly recommended. Anthony is very responsive with answering back to questions and moving the process forward. He will answer the phone at most hrs of the day.”
“Super knowledgeable and easy to work with! He made buying my first condo an easy process. Would definitely recommend TJ as a realtor for buying or selling a house.”
“Roni was fantastic. He helped us buy our first home and was there for us every step of the way. He made the process feel smooth and clear. We'd love to work with him again down the road and definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great agent!”

“originally reached out to Joe Kovalchik with the Justin Ford Real Estate Team because I thought I was just getting myself in position to buy a home sometime next year. Joe connected me with a great lender, and we discovered I qualified for a USDA loan with 100% financing. Instead of waiting another year, Joe helped me get into a home much sooner than I expected. Over about a month and a half of searching, Joe helped me find the right opportunity and even got me access to a home before it officially hit the market. That ended up being the home I purchased! He also negotiated for the seller to cover my closing costs, which meant I was able to buy a home with very little money out of pocket. I couldn't be happier with how everything worked out. Joe went above and beyond to help me understand my options, find the right home, and negotiate a great deal. If you're looking for a real estate agent in Metro Detroit who understands first-time homebuyers, USDA loans, 100% financing, and how to negotiate seller-paid closing costs, I highly recommend Joe Kovalchik and the Justin Ford Real Estate Team!”
“Blake Callahan is the embodiment of integrity, leadership and extraordinary service. He genuinely cares about his clients and exemplifies that in words and deeds. My chronic illnesses and disabilities preclude traditional house hunting, however with Blake’s partnership and leadership I was able to find a home with support and ease. Blake is much more than an agent; he’s an honest, kind, trustworthy proactive partner and advocate who fiercely had my back and best interests at heart . If you’re looking for stellar representation, look no further than Blake. It will be the best decision you make.”
“I sold my townhouse in Northville with Tom after 9 years. He suggested a couple of small cosmetic fixes before listing that I almost skipped and they genuinely made the home show better. Had strong traffic the first weekend and accepted a clean offer by Monday. Small details matter and he knows which ones count.”
“You might notice we share the same last name, Chad’s my cousin. Over the past ten years, I’ve watched him grow his real estate platform through social media, and now I fully understand why he’s growing so quickly. He was incredibly helpful, and everyone in the industry seemed to know his name. He found me everything I wanted in a perfect house, got things done quickly and effectively, and was overall a great realtor. I’m fully confident he didn’t just do all this because I’m family but because he’s truly good at what he does. Thanks, Chad!”
“Ryan sold my wife's condo in just 4 hours and mine in two weeks in the past. Now, he’s helped us close on the perfect place to raise our family. He was such a great negotiator and kept us in the loop the whole time. The process was honestly so smooth that we didn't feel any stress at all. Thanks!”
“Kevin did a great job selling my house. The market is pretty tough right now. We had multiple offers in the first weekend and he got it sold well above asking price. Would recommend him to anyone looking to sell their home!”
“In today’s real estate market, having the right realtor matters more than ever. You need more than someone who just helps you buy or sell a house. You need a realtor like Mo, who understands and closely monitors the broader economic factors affecting the real estate market—from inflation and higher interest rates to shifting consumer sentiment and homeownership costs, including homeowners insurance. Because Mo understands these factors, he can look beyond the transaction itself and understand the individual needs of both buyers and sellers. He works hard to match people with the right opportunities and to help both sides reach a fair deal. That’s exactly what he did for me, and honestly, I don’t think I would have sold my home this year if I hadn’t switched to Mo. And on top of all that, he’s genuinely a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Mo to anyone looking to buy or sell a home—you’ll love working with him!”
“We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better realtor to help us through the process of buying our home. From the very beginning, he was so friendly, easygoing, and genuinely easy to work with. He was always quick to respond to our questions and made us feel like we were a priority throughout the entire process. Buying a home can be stressful, but he made everything feel so much easier and more manageable. We always felt like we could reach out when we needed something, and we never felt pressured or rushed. He truly went above and beyond to make the experience as smooth and painless as possible. We’re so thankful we had him by our side during such an important time for our family. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”
“I had the privilege of working with Tiffanie in multiple capacities, from finding tenants for my property to successfully selling it. I wholeheartedly recommend her services. Right from the start, she went above and beyond to ensure I felt supported and informed every step of the way. Tiffanie genuinely cares about her clients, making sure they are never taken advantage of. Her meticulous attention to detail and proactive approach significantly impacted my experience. I always felt like I was her top priority. Whether she was answering my questions or negotiating on my behalf, Tiffanie was consistently on task and dedicated. If you’re in search of a realtor who truly cares and achieves results, Tiffanie is definitely the one to call!”

“Mona was so about the area and really listened to what our needs were. My husband needed one floor with no steps and she found a great location for us. She has kept in touch and always updated us in a timely manner. We have lived in the same house for 40 years so our move was very trying and quite a learning experience and she was there for us every step of the way.”
