Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).

Nelson’s housing market has cooled somewhat from a year ago in this rolling three-month view. Typical home values are down a bit year over year, while the number of homes sold has fallen by more than 20 percent. Inventory has loosened as months of supply has climbed sharply compared with last year.

Current conditions show a typical home value of about $176,000 and a median list price just over $173,000. Homes are taking longer to sell than a year ago, with the median days on market now at 31, up about 10 percent year over year.

Supply and demand are finding more balance, with 3.8 months of supply in Nelson compared with 3.6 months across Muskegon overall. Even with softer sales, more than a third of recent sales closed above the list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio is just under 97 percent, indicating sellers are still achieving prices close to asking. Buyers can use these trends to fine-tune offers and timing, while sellers will want guidance on pricing and preparation in a slower sales environment, and Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands these local dynamics.

“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!”

“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.”

“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”

“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!”
