Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026).
Year-over-year, Swift County home values have climbed sharply, with the typical home value up nearly 60 percent, far outpacing the modest gain seen across Minnesota. At the same time, the number of homes sold is down by almost 44 percent from a year ago, showing that rising prices are coinciding with slower closed sales.
In the latest May 2026 data, the typical home value sits at about $239,000 while the median list price is notably lower at around $195,000, suggesting sellers may still be pricing below where many sales are landing. Inventory has inched up, with active listings rising about 5 percent year over year to 48 homes, giving buyers a bit more to choose from than last spring.
Market balance has shifted as months of supply has more than tripled from last year to about four months, even though the county is still labeled a seller’s market compared with Minnesota’s tighter 2.6 months of supply. Homes that do sell are taking much longer, with median days on market jumping to 216, yet about a quarter of recent sales still closed above list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio is holding near 94 percent. Whether you are a buyer trying to interpret these mixed signals or a seller aiming to price correctly, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local Swift County agent who knows how to navigate this market.

“Michele has been amazing to work with. She responds to questions very quickly, even late at night. Many times, she would watch my child for short periods of time so I could fully focus on the houses. She was also very punctual with any appointments and showings. Being a first time home buyer, it was really good to have someone that could "hold my hand" and help ease any anxieties. She helped us get our home which I hope we will love for many years. When we do decide to upgrade, we will be reaching out to Michele again. She's a wonderful person to work with.”

“I was in immediate need of housing. Stephanie was recommended by a friend who had just worked with her on a home purchase. Stephanie met with me to detail my housing requirements. She found a home that exceeded my needs and met a couple of my dreams in just a couple of days. From our initial meeting to closing was less than three weeks. There is only one word to describe Stephanie; PHENOMATASTIC!”

“Caitlin was great both times we worked with her; she was always on top of her game no matter what! She always replied fast to questions or comments, not that there were many of those, given how hands-on she was in explaining everything. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the entire process and had an answer for every question I sent her way. Not to mention how smooth she made the closing process, I thought that was going to be the biggest stressor, but she made it simpler than I thought possible for closing a house! I already absolutely recommend her to everyone I know and have no plans on changing that anytime soon!”

She was super responsive by promptly answering all of our calls and emails. We always felt like we were top priority on her list. From our first meeting to the closing process, Rochelle was by our side. This level of dedication and sincerity is rare in the real estate industry. Rochelle's genuine care and dedication made our journey so much easier and enjoyable. In the end, we found the perfect buyers for our beautiful home. Thanks Rochelle!!”

“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!”

“I purchased my first home with the help of Heather Warner. From a quick google search of realators specializing in first time homebuyers I found the Barker Hedges team which led me to Heather. Leaning heavily on her experience I had unwavering faith in her to provide valuable consultation in all aspects of the house buying process. Strongly reccomend Heather to any homebuyers. She simplified the process for me tremedously and will was extremely honest in the house touring process. She will be a strong voice for you communicating at a very high level.”

“I had an exceptional experience working with my real estate agent in selling my house in Plymouth, Minnesota. He provided invaluable advice on repairs, staging, and pricing, ensuring that every aspect of the sale was optimized. He even took the time to show me comparable properties, helping me determine the best listing price. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, I’m taking the time to leave reviews on multiple websites. I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor.”
