Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Feb 2026 - Apr 2026).
Year-over-year, University District’s rolling three-month numbers show prices easing while activity has picked up. The typical home value is down compared with a year ago, yet homes sold have increased about 13 percent and new listings have surged more than 150 percent, giving buyers more options than last year.
At the same time, this rolling three-month snapshot shows sellers still hold an edge, with the area rated as a seller's market and only 2.8 months of supply compared with Detroit’s 6.6 months. Inventory has risen roughly 82 percent from a year ago, and pending sales are up about 47 percent, signaling that many of the additional listings are finding buyers.
Looking at current conditions, the typical home value is about $367,000 while the median list price is around $416,000, and homes are taking a median of 102 days to go under contract. With only 8.3 percent of sales closing above list price and an average sale-to-list ratio near 97 percent, negotiation has become more common than in prior years. In this evolving environment, both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate agent who understands University District’s trends and can guide them through each step of the process.

“Katherine Schaumburger and her team performed with very effeciently and professionally after I listed our home with them> My circumstance was unique in that I moved out of state shortly after I signed on to have the Schaumburger Team handle the selling of our home. Everything was handled long distance and with my well being in mind! The end resulted in the successful selling of our home and receiving a far better end result than I had anticipated! I would whole heartedly recommend the Schaumburger organizion for any Real Estate transaction! Sincerely. Dan Hallgren”

“Hi,it was a great experience working with Jodi. She is very professional realtor. She makes sure that you understand every situation,and process that you face . When it came time to look for houses Jodi got right on it . We started out looking for houses on the East side of the city, and made sure what tipe of house and location where you want to live . It was not an easy task, but after looking at twelve houses it took a lot of energy . We stayed on the look until we got finished. After looking on the East side we started looking on the west side . We looked at nine more houses on the west side. Out of the nine houses on the west side it was one house that caught my eyes. I did fine three houses on the east side, but nether house did not have a driveway. The house that caught me eyes on the west side did have a driveway. When I walked in that house on Sorrento it was everything I was looking for. I told Jodi we did not have to look no further. I put in a bid,and went for it and was.”

Since he has construction experience, I felt completely comfortable with him guiding me in what to ignore and what to pay close attention to when reviewing home inspections. He's honest, reliable and truly cares about his clients. I can't be more thankful for crossing paths with Jeremy, and I highly recommend him to anyone who might be selling or purchasing a home in the future.”

“Natasha was absolutely wonderful to work with! She answered all of our questions quickly and was incredibly knowledgeable throughout the entire process. She was easy to talk to, always available when we needed her, and truly made the experience of buying our first home far less intimidating. Because we were across the country for much of the process, Natasha went above and beyond by attending many open houses on our behalf, something we appreciated so much. She was flexible, supportive, and made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. Thank you for everything, Natasha! We loved getting to know you and will definitely call you when it’s time to sell. ☺️”
