Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Year-over-year, Shields home values in this rolling three-month view are down sharply, with the typical home value off nearly 16 percent compared to last September. At the same time, the median list price has moved higher by about 8 percent, highlighting a gap between what sellers are asking and where closed sales are landing.
Looking at activity, the number of homes sold over the period is down about 9 percent from a year ago, and new listings have fallen more than 30 percent. Pending sales have dropped by a similar share, roughly one-third, which signals slower buyer follow-through even as overall supply trends remain tight.
In the most recent rolling window, buyers are seeing a median of just 14 days on market and only 1.5 months of supply, both consistent with a firm seller’s market despite softer prices. With only about 15 percent of homes selling above list price and an average sale-to-list ratio near 97 percent, negotiations still matter, and Agent Pronto can help both buyers and sellers find an agent who understands these local dynamics.
