Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Livingston County real estate market. *
September 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 (Sep 2026).
Livingston County currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge at 36 and inventory relatively tight. Months of supply sits at 2.3, below the Michigan average of 3.1, which helps keep conditions in sellers’ favor. Homes are also moving at a moderate pace, with a median of 24 days on market and nearly half going off the market in two weeks.
Price trends show steady upward movement over the past year, even with some softening in recent months. The typical home value of about $421,000 is up nearly 4 percent year over year, while the median list price has risen almost 9 percent over the same period. At the same time, the share of homes selling above list has edged down to about 29 percent, and the average sale-to-list ratio has inched just below 100 percent, suggesting slightly less intense bidding than earlier this year.
On the supply side, options for buyers have expanded compared with last year, with active listings up around 8 percent and new listings surging more than 35 percent year over year. Even with more choices, demand remains solid, as homes sold and pending sales are both up from a year ago, though they have dipped month to month heading into fall. These crosscurrents can be hard to navigate, and Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with a local Livingston County agent who understands how to move in this type of market.
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.
