Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Merriam Park East real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
February 2026 brought several notable month-over-month changes in Merriam Park East. Typical home values climbed about 12 percent from the prior month to roughly $390,000, while the median list price held steady at $475,000.
Homes are taking longer to sell, with median days on market jumping to 107. Inventory tightened from the previous month, moving down to just 3 active listings. At the same time, buyers put 11 homes under contract and 7 new listings came on the market.
Looking back over the year adds more perspective, as typical home values are down about 23 percent year over year even though they are projected to reach $411,250 in March 2026. Market activity has heated up compared with last year, with pending sales up about 267 percent and new listings higher by 75 percent, while inventory is still low and the area is rated a seller’s market. Typical values here remain well above the broader St. Paul figure of about $292,359, showing Merriam Park East as a higher-priced pocket within the city. Only about 14 percent of homes have been selling above list, and the average sale-to-list ratio is just under 0.98, hinting that pricing is relatively close to buyer expectations. In this kind of shifting environment, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting with an experienced local agent.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.

“Susan helped me sell my dad's house after he unexpectedly passed away in 2025. She was so kind and empathetic about my situation, and very patient as it took us months to empty the house before it was listed. But from the start she worked hard to get us the right resources and information. She was incredibly helpful during the selling process and gave great suggestions on price. She made the process pretty easy!”
