Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026).
Inventory and contract activity in Cape Girardeau County have picked up meaningfully this spring. Active listings are up about 16% from a year ago and pending sales have surged nearly 38% year over year, while homes sold in April climbed about 19% compared with last year.
Pricing is responding to this stronger flow of deals. The typical home value has climbed roughly 13% over the past year and the median list price is also up about 14% year over year, even as the average sale-to-list ratio holds close to 99%.
Conditions on the ground favor sellers, but buyers still have more options than a year ago. Homes now sit on the market a median of 28 days, down sharply from last year, months of supply is about 2.3 compared with Missouri’s 3 months overall, and a growing share of sales close above asking, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended expert who understands how to navigate this local market.
