Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Livingston County real estate market. *
June 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
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 (Jun 2026).
Livingston County currently leans toward sellers, with conditions favoring well-priced homes. The market gauge sits firmly in seller’s territory, supported by just 1.7 months of supply, much tighter than Michigan’s 2.8 months overall. Limited inventory is meeting strong demand, keeping pricing power on the seller side.
Prices are edging up while activity accelerates. The typical home value is up about 4% from last year, and the median list price has climbed nearly 6% year over year, indicating sellers are testing higher price points. At the same time, homes sold jumped about 18% compared with last June, and pending sales are up nearly 28% year over year, showing that buyers are still stepping in despite rising prices.
Even with this momentum, some signs point to a market where buyers have to move quickly but carefully. The median days on market is 21, far slower than last year but still quick enough that about 47% of homes are going under contract within two weeks, and roughly 43% are selling above list price, with sale-to-list ratios hovering just over 100%. Active listings are slightly lower than a year ago, and new listings are down more than 10%, reinforcing the inventory squeeze. Whether buyers are trying to compete effectively or sellers are aiming to price and time their listing well, Agent Pronto can connect them with a local Livingston County agent who understands these dynamics.
Livingston County offers residents a welcoming blend of tight-knit communities, abundant outdoor recreation, excellent schools, and a thriving local economy that supports a high quality of life.
Livingston County stands out from larger neighbors like Washtenaw County and Oakland County by offering a quieter, close‑knit feel paired with easy access to Ann Arbor, Lansing, and metro Detroit. Residents value a strong sense of local identity, from the independently owned shops in Brighton to the historic courthouse square in Howell.
Outdoor recreation shapes daily life here. Families gather at Brighton Recreation Area for camping, hiking, and lakeside fun, while Island Lake Recreation Area offers paddling on the Huron River and popular bike trails. In Howell, Thompson Lake at Howell City Park draws swimmers and boaters, and ice fishing appears when winter settles in.
Community events and local institutions add to the county’s appeal. The Howell Carnegie District Library hosts programs for all ages, and seasonal festivals fill downtown streets with residents who tend to know one another by name. Newer development near Hartland and Hamburg Township offers modern neighborhoods while rural roads still wind past farms and wide open spaces.
Whether you are moving across town or relocating from outside the area, timing and preparation matter in Livingston County’s competitive market. The right agent can help buyers move quickly on well‑priced homes and guide sellers through pricing and staging strategies to capture strong offers. Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands the local pace, neighborhoods, and opportunities.
