Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
Compared with a year ago, Ithaca’s rolling three-month home values have risen, with the typical sale price up about 11 percent. At the same time, the number of homes sold has fallen nearly 30 percent year over year, signaling a cooler pace of transactions even as prices trend higher.
In the latest rolling three-month period ending in August 2026, the typical home value sits around $175,000 and the median list price is lower, near $157,000. Inventory is tight with only 20 active listings and about 1.7 months of supply, down more than a third from last year and consistent with the area’s designation as a seller’s market.
Speed and pricing dynamics show a mixed picture for buyers and sellers in Ithaca. Homes are taking a bit longer to sell than a year ago at a median of 51 days on market, while only about 18 percent are closing above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio is just over 97 percent, and Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands how to navigate these conditions.
Ithaca offers residents a tight-knit community with a welcoming small-town vibe, solid local services, and ample outdoor and cultural opportunities that make everyday life engaging and fulfilling.
Ithaca is a small, centrally located community that serves as the county seat and a practical home base between Lansing and Mount Pleasant. Residents appreciate easy access to US‑127, which simplifies commuting for work, school, and regional healthcare.
Daily life in Ithaca centers on a compact downtown with local shops, services, and dining. Families make frequent use of the Ithaca Branch Library for programs and study space, and students attend schools in the Ithaca Public Schools district, known for its close community feel and active athletics. Outdoor time is easy to find at North Park and along the Pine River, where residents enjoy walking paths, ball fields, and seasonal events.
Grocery stores, basic healthcare, and everyday errands are close at hand, reducing the need for long drives. Larger retail options and additional dining are within a short trip to Alma and St. Louis. Regional amenities such as Central Michigan University and entertainment venues in Mt. Pleasant broaden choices for education, sports, and culture.
Whether you are relocating for a shorter commute, looking to downsize, or preparing to sell and move closer to family, a local Ithaca real estate agent can help you weigh school zones, commute routes, and neighborhood amenities. Agent Pronto connects buyers and sellers with agents who know Ithaca well, reducing stress and helping each move stay on track.

She was extremely pleasant, attentive to detail and consistently available for questions and issues. She takes her fiduciary responsibility very seriously, and was honest and trustworthy.”
“Marie is amazing and I would work with her again in a heartbeat --- actually, I will be soon.”
“We got to know Allison during 3 separate transactions over a 3ish year process in Canaidan Lakes. We were lucky enough to build a strong trusting relationship, and found her support and knowledge of the region very important. We will certainly reach out to Allison again, if our real estate itch ever returns!”
“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!”
“I had the privilege of working with Tiffanie in multiple capacities, from finding tenants for my property to successfully selling it. I wholeheartedly recommend her services. Right from the start, she went above and beyond to ensure I felt supported and informed every step of the way. Tiffanie genuinely cares about her clients, making sure they are never taken advantage of. Her meticulous attention to detail and proactive approach significantly impacted my experience. I always felt like I was her top priority. Whether she was answering my questions or negotiating on my behalf, Tiffanie was consistently on task and dedicated. If you’re in search of a realtor who truly cares and achieves results, Tiffanie is definitely the one to call!”

“My daughter is a real estate agent, but I needed to act right away when this listing popped up. Amy was all over it. Giving sound advice, knowing the seller, his agent, the property, and wasted no time scheduling a walk thru and submitting a subsequent offer for what was best for both myself and the seller. Honest, trustworthy, fair, and eager to do her job every step of the way. Couldn't be happier. Would not have closed the deal without her; and that's the truth.”
“Amy was very easy to work with and gave us valuable advice on increasing our listing price. The whole process working with Amy was very smooth. I have recommended her to several of my friends and they have also been extremely pleased with her.”

“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.”
“Dawn was courteous professional honest and trusting. She was highly recommended and rightfully so. Dawn was very timely in her responses. Took time to follow up on items I was responsible for. All these attributes culminated in a quick sale. Thank you Dawn!”
“Don Wurtzel is a true professional and master of his craft: responsive, knowledgeable and dedicated to his clients. Throughout the selling process, we had ease of mind knowing Don and his company, Cornerstone Real Estate, had out backs. We wouldn't hesitate to use his services again or recommend him.”
“Barketa is fantastic! She walked with us and pointed out things that maybe an issue. She was great at figuring out what met our needs. Barketa is straightforward and honest. We felt super comfortable when working with her. Barketa is a wonderful agent and if we have anything like this again, I would 100% work with her again. I would recommend her to anyone looking in the area”
“Katie was amazing and very quick to respond to us with any questions we had. She gave us so much information and extremely helpful.”
“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.”
“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!”
