Inventory in Brighton has tightened over the past year, with active listings down slightly and new listings falling more noticeably. Pending sales in this rolling three-month period are also lower than a year ago, pointing to a slower contract pace. Even with fewer homes coming to market, there is now 2.3 months of supply, up from around 1.3 months a year earlier, so buyers have a bit more breathing room than they did last year.
Pricing is adjusting to these shifting supply and demand patterns. The typical home value over the latest three-month window is down compared with last year, while the median list price is up sharply year over year, suggesting that sellers are testing higher asking prices but not always achieving them. Homes are still moving relatively quickly, with the median days on market holding at about 18 days, only slightly faster than a year ago.
Seller leverage has eased compared with the recent past, even though the broader gauge still classifies Brighton as a seller’s market. The share of homes selling above list has dropped significantly from last year, and the average sale-to-list ratio has edged down, signaling more room for negotiation. With contract activity cooling and pricing trends mixed, local conditions can be tricky to read, and Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an experienced Brighton agent to navigate the details.
