Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Mar 2026 - May 2026).
Inventory in Old Forest has tightened in this rolling three-month view, with active listings down nearly 16% from a year ago to 20 homes. New listings have fallen even more sharply, dropping almost 40% year over year, which limits options for buyers. Despite the lower supply, months of inventory has risen compared with last year, sitting at 4.6 months and signaling a more balanced feel than the broader Lansing market’s 2.6 months.
Buyer activity has cooled relative to last year, with homes sold down about 28% and pending sales lower by roughly 36%. Properties are taking far longer to move than a year ago, with the median days on market now around 80 in Old Forest compared with much quicker sale times seen previously.
Pricing, however, has pushed higher in response to these shifting conditions. The typical home value is up nearly 14% year over year in this rolling three-month period, and the median list price has climbed by a similar amount. Nearly 57% of recent sales closed above the list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio sits just under 100%, showing that well-priced homes still draw strong offers. With Old Forest trending differently than the wider Lansing area, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who understands these neighborhood-specific dynamics.
