Monthly Inventory and Sales Activity for Ingham County
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Ingham County currently leans toward sellers, with a market gauge reading of 39 and just 3.3 months of supply. Inventory is still relatively tight even though active listings are up about 9 percent from a year ago. Homes are taking a bit longer to move, with the median days on market at 40, slightly higher than last month but roughly steady year over year.
Home values have edged higher over the past year, with the typical sale price up about 4 percent, even as Michigan overall sits at a higher median price. List prices rose more quickly, climbing nearly 9 percent year over year, signaling that many sellers are testing higher price points despite a recent monthly dip in closed-sale prices.
Buyer activity has cooled somewhat compared with last year, as homes sold are down about 6 percent and new listings are down nearly 14 percent. Fewer bidding wars are showing up, with the share of homes selling above list falling to about 24 percent and the average sale-to-list ratio just under 99 percent. Conditions now reflect a more balanced but still seller-tilted environment, and both buyers and sellers can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who understands these shifting dynamics.

Ingham County offers residents a welcoming community with abundant parks, strong schools, accessible healthcare, and a vibrant mix of cultural, recreational, and work opportunities.
Ingham County offers a distinct blend of Michigan State University energy, state government influence, and small community ease that sets it apart from nearby counties. From the college-town feel of East Lansing to the historic neighborhoods of Lansing, the county’s identity is shaped by education, public service, and accessible amenities. Residents enjoy cultural institutions like the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum and family favorites such as the Potter Park Zoo, along with a growing food and coffee scene centered around downtown Lansing and East Lansing.
Outdoor access is a major draw. Miles of paths along the Lansing River Trail connect parks, neighborhoods, and the Grand River. Local parks such as Hawk Island Park and Lake Lansing Park South offer swimming, boating, and year-round recreation. Smaller communities like Mason and Williamston provide quieter streets and traditional downtowns, while the Meridian Township area features established neighborhoods close to shopping, schools, and Meridian Historical Village.
Whether you are drawn by MSU, the state capitol, or a more relaxed town atmosphere, the local market can shift quickly between student rentals, historic homes, and new construction. Connecting early with a skilled agent who understands timing, pricing, and neighborhood nuances across Ingham County helps both buyers and sellers prepare, act confidently, and make the most of current opportunities.

“I had a wonderful experience working with Don Wurtzel at Cornerstone - Saline! He helped me find a home that is exactly what I was looking for—the perfect size for me, in my ideal location and school district. With my busy work schedule, I really appreciated how accommodating he was in finding times for us to meet. Once I chose my home, everything moved quickly and smoothly, making the process easy. I’m so happy with my new home and would highly recommend Don to family and friends!”
“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!”
“Ramsey did an outstanding job! He knows the area, showed us a number of homes that fit our budget and preferred location (very important to us). He's a good communicator, very friendly. Knows his stuff. I would definitely use him again.”
“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.”
“Jason Emerson was trustworthy and diligent in guiding us through the selling process. He had an accurate assessment of market conditions which led to us getting the price we wanted. His knowledge of media sources and ability to effectively use them was important. Jason worked tirelessly on our behalf. He listened to us and implemented actions to incorporate our ideas. Jason was truly a valued partner in selling our property!”
“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!”
“Doug was a pleasure to work with, selling our old home and buying our new home. His expertise is obvious and negotiation skills exceptional. Low fees too. Highly recommend”
“Amy was great! We had a issue where the purchase of our vacation/retirement home was in jeopardy. Amy guided us through to a successful conclusion.”
“Eric was incredible as we navigated the entire real estate process. We were selling a house for the first time, as well as buying a new construction house. He explained everything in detail for the processes and made sure to answer any questions we had. When we needed answers from other people, he made sure to track them down or follow up so we could get the information we needed. He was incredible at listening to our needs and making sure we got what we wanted/needed out of both the buying and selling process. We would recommend him a million times over!”
“We couldn't have been any more pleased and impressed with Natalie Katzman as our Buyer's Agent for our lakehouse purchase in White Lake! In addition to her strong knowledge of the market and the home buying/selling process, Natalie blew us away with her focus, commitment, and above-and-beyond level of service. She has a manic energy (in a good way!) to do whatever is needed to help her clients, to get the deal done, and to make sure everyone is satisfied. Here communications were outstanding and she was (seemingly) available 24/7. As we approached our Closing, she helped and protected us from issues and problems. Finally -- and just as important -- Natalie has a sunny and positive personality that was a pleasure to spend time with during our house search. We recommend Natalie Katzman 100%!”
“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!”
“Thomas was absolutely wonderful to work with. He sold my dad’s home quickly and made the entire process so much easier for us. He was professional, knowledgeable, and always on top of everything. He walked us through every step and was always available when we had questions. What I appreciated most was that Thomas is ethical, honest, and truly does the right thing. We are extremely happy with his service and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor!”
“Cedric did a great job all the way around he went over and beyond helping my family secure a home I would definitely be passing his name to anyone who is looking to secure a home in the future”
“She is absolutely amazing!! She listened to what we wanted and was able to point certain things out that we might not have noticed. She is very detailed oriented and cares about what you are looking for.”
“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!”
“Kelly, Thank you so much for all of your help! You made purchasing my first home very easy. I really appreciate how well you explained each step and process I always knew what to expect. Your knowledge on what I needed to look for in homes to fit my FHA loan was so helpful!! Thank so much I really enjoyed working with you”
“Corey walked us through every step of the way. He is very knowledgeable along with his team. Any question I had, Corey either knew it or made sure to find the answer. Corey is very personable and makes you feel welcomed!”
“Nicole is the best! She was punctual, courteous, very informative. Nicole took care of everything when I sold house. From making sure I understood all the paperwork, to setting up a great photographer to take beautiful pictures. Because of Nicole's dedication and work ethics, I had over 40 requests for showings on the first day. She also keeps me updated with any new listings that meets my criteria now. Nicole is super responsive, never once did I have to wait to hear from her. She is a great agent.”
“Ben did a fantastic job making sure all my questions were answered and giving real feedback on the homes we toured; I never felt like he was trying to convince me to buy. His genuine care for clients is clear, and he had great knowledge throughout the process. Highly recommend Ben to anyone looking to buy a home.”
