Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Baxter’s rolling three-month data through September 2026 shows home values holding slightly above last year while other dynamics shift more sharply. The typical home value is up a bit year over year, rising about 6 percent. At the same time, homes sold have surged more than triple compared to a year ago, and active listings have also more than doubled, indicating much more movement than last fall.
Looking more closely at current conditions, the typical home value sits around the mid-$200,000s, with median list prices now a bit lower than a year ago. Homes are taking longer to sell than last year, with median days on market moving from single digits to just over a month, and only about 17 percent of recent sales closing above the list price as sale-to-list ratios edge down slightly.
Inventory has expanded to just over four months of supply in Baxter, which is higher than the broader Grand Rapids area’s roughly two and a half months, even though Baxter is still categorized as a seller’s market overall. New listings are up strongly year over year while pending sales have more than tripled, suggesting buyers have more choices but also more transactions to compete with. In this kind of shifting environment, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto helping them connect with a local agent who understands Baxter’s trends in detail.

“Tania was a gem from the start! I personally had already been through some, not great sales with different realtors so I was very nervous to go through this, especially when it was important to me personally. She was very good on maintaining contact and updates even if it was something small and she was very quick and resourceful! Tania was always readily available to answer any questions and to reassure the process. I would recommend her to anyone who was looking the sell or buy their home!”

“Where do I even begin? Tony was an absolute rockstar! He helped me purchase my first home from 2800 miles away - sight unseen. You may think I'm crazy for doing that, but it's due to Tony's competency as a realtor. The way he virtually showed me homes was excellent - as if I were there. He commonly pointed out potential issues and things to think about. Everything from custom wood encased windows that would eventually leak to where the gutters drain and the impact on asphalt over time. He didn't tell me what to do or make me feel less than for moving forwsrd with an offer on properites with issues - it was merely to know and understand any potential risks. When I was particularly down after multiple losses on offers, he said not to worry, we'd find my home - AND WE DID!!!!!!! I am so excited to have purchased my dream home. If I were to know someone who needed to buy a home in the area or from afar, I would hands down recommend Tony! Thanks so much Tony.”

Meridian Real Estate Services & 3DX Real Estate
“We had an incredible experience working with Bryant Stuut to both buy and sell our home. Bryant was attentive, honest, incredibly responsive, and always willing to answer our many questions throughout the process. What stood out most was how well Bryant understood exactly what we were looking for. He never made us feel pressured and consistently gave us thoughtful, straightforward advice. When it came time to sell, he recommended several small, practical changes that we feel helped our home sell faster and for a higher price. Buying and selling a home can be very stressful, but Bryant made the entire experience feel manageable and gave us complete confidence along the way. I truly cannot say enough good things about him and would recommend Bryant to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”
Next Realty Group, LLC
“In preparing for the sale and facilitating the final sale of a property with several difficulties, Angela Averill and her team were very helpful and exceptionally patient--particularly, her team members, Kylie and Dalanie, who were kind at the closing by listening to my frustrations regarding issues over which they had no control. This property sale helped our organization greatly and wouldn't have worked out as well without this great team of realtors. Thank you for everything!”
