Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Merriam Park-Lexington-Hamline real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Homes in Merriam Park-Lexington-Hamline are changing hands at a steady clip, spending a median of 23 days on the market in March 2026. That pace is much quicker than many buyers expect and helps explain why conditions lean toward sellers right now.
Prices are reflecting this strong demand. The typical home value stands at about $426,250, up 8.19% from a year ago and 10.71% just since last month. Median list price is close behind at $425,000, with only a modest 1.19% month-over-month increase.
Supply has loosened slightly but remains limited, with 23 active listings in March and inventory up 35.29% year over year and 15.0% month over month. New listings, at 34 for the month, are down 20.93% from last year, while pending sales dipped only 3.03%, signaling buyers are still active even as options tighten. About half of recent sales closed above the asking price, and the average sale-to-list ratio is essentially 1.00, showing homes typically sell right at list. Typical values here are also notably higher than in St. Paul overall, where they sit around $295,000. With a clear seller’s market emerging and projected values rising toward $446,875 next month, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding the right local agent to guide their decisions.
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!”
