Hillcrest currently shows a slight tilt toward buyers, with homes taking some time to sell and prices adjusting downward. The typical home value sits around $225,000, which is notably below St. Paul’s $295,000. Sellers are also seeing homes close at about 95% of list price, and none of the recent sales have gone above asking.
Recent trends help explain this balance. Typical home values are down 9.96% compared to last year and fell 16.01% just since the prior month, signaling softer pricing. At the same time, the median list price has surged to about $399,500, up 94.88% month over month, suggesting some sellers are testing higher price points even as buyers gain leverage. Homes are spending more time on the market, with median days on market rising to 46, up 17.95% from last month and 6.98% from a year ago.
Activity has slowed, with only 1 new listing and 3 pending sales in the latest month, and pending sales down 25.0% year over year while new listings dropped 66.67%. Looking ahead, the typical home value is projected to edge down to about $203,550, while the projected median list price could reach roughly $496,750, highlighting an ongoing gap between asking prices and underlying values.
