Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Ogemaw 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).
Inventory in Ogemaw County has expanded notably, with active listings up more than 27 percent year over year to 213 homes. New listings have surged almost 85 percent from a year ago, bringing many more options onto the market. Months of supply has climbed to 4.9, more than tripling compared with last year and moving conditions closer to balance even though the area is still labeled a seller’s market.
Contract activity is holding up despite the added supply, with pending sales running about 17 percent higher than a year ago. Closed sales tell a different story, with the number of homes sold dropping more than 25 percent year over year, which can reflect both shifting buyer timelines and the recent jump in available listings. Homes are also taking a bit longer to move, as the median days on market has edged up to 62 days compared with a year earlier.
Prices are adjusting to these conditions rather than racing ahead. The typical home value in Ogemaw County is up only slightly year over year, while the average sale-to-list ratio has slipped to about 95 percent, suggesting buyers have a bit more room to negotiate than before. A smaller share of homes, just over one in five, is selling above list price, and local prices remain well below the Michigan median. In this evolving environment, both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate agent who understands the latest data and how to use it in their favor.

Locals escape to Irons Park for the river loop, playgrounds, and community events. Golfers frequent The Nightmare Golf Course in nearby West Branch Township, while seasonal festivals and youth sports connect families countywide.
Daily life is anchored by practical amenities. Ogemaw Heights students attend Ogemaw Heights High School, and the West Branch District Library offers classes, tech access, and programs for all ages. From cottages near the Rifle River to homes close to downtown Rose City, buyers can choose between quiet acreage, neighborhood streets, and lakefront escapes.
