Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Inventory and sales flow in Russell Woods have shifted noticeably in this rolling three-month view through September 2026. Active listings are down about one-fifth from a year ago, yet homes sold have fallen even faster, dropping more than 60 percent year over year. Pending sales are also lower than last year, and months of supply has surged to 7.7 months, higher than the broader Detroit market’s 7.3 months.
Pricing is reacting to these conditions in complex ways. The typical home value is almost flat compared with a year ago, edging down less than 1 percent, while the median list price is up more than 18 percent year over year, indicating sellers are testing higher asking prices even as buyer activity cools.
Time on market and negotiation dynamics underline the shift in leverage. Homes now take a median of 87 days to sell, which is slightly faster than a year ago but much slower than earlier in 2026, and no homes in this period closed above list price as the average sale-to-list ratio slipped below 89 percent. Compared with Detroit overall, Russell Woods shows similar price levels but a sharper pullback in closed and pending sales, suggesting buyers have more room to negotiate while sellers face a smaller, more selective pool of prospects. Whether you are aiming to stand out as a seller or secure value as a buyer, Agent Pronto can connect you with a Russell Woods expert who understands these trends.

“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!”
“Linda was exactly who I needed on my side for my first home purchase! She always took the time to make sure that I understood everything along the process. She has extensive experience and taught me a lot of little things to look for when touring homes. She made me feel like a priority to her and genuinely had my best interests at heart. I really enjoyed working with Linda and appreciated her willingness to fight for me. I will recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home!”

“Jason is an excellent person to work for. Very attentive and helpful through out the selling home process. He was able to answer every question I had clearly and in a timely order. Really went out of the way to walk me through each step and offer suggestion and help. This was my first time selling a home. Jason and his team were very knowledgeable about the area of my home, what I should list for and showed me different options and strategies when listing my home. During the showing process they were able to give me other realtors feed back in real time. My home was sold within the first week of my showing it. After the home was sold walking through the closing process was a breeze. Jason and Jenna really took thier time explaining what to do and was able to accommodate me with me being out of state for the closing date. If you want knowledgeable and professional realtors that get amazing results. Please look no further.”
“I cannot say enough good things about my experience working with Christine. As an out-of-state investor, the process of purchasing property can feel overwhelming, but Christine made it seamless from start to finish. From our very first conversation, she was transparent, trustworthy, and truly had my best interests at heart. What impressed me most was her willingness to go the extra mile—whether it was providing detailed updates, answering every question with honesty, or handling tasks on the ground that I couldn’t do myself. Her communication was clear and consistent, which gave me complete confidence throughout the entire process. Christine’s professionalism, integrity, and genuine care for her clients set her apart. She turned what could have been a stressful out-of-state purchase into an incredibly smooth and positive experience. I would not hesitate to work with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor they can trust completely.”
