Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Year-over-year, Clayton’s rolling three-month numbers show softer prices but stronger activity. The typical home value is down about 6 percent from last year, and the median list price has fallen by roughly a third. At the same time, homes sold are up more than 30 percent and new listings are up over 40 percent, signaling more movement on both sides of the table.
In the latest rolling three-month period ending in September 2026, the typical home value sits around $890,000, while the median list price is closer to $643,000. Buyers have more to choose from than a year ago, with active listings up nearly 40 percent and months of supply slightly higher at about two and a half months, yet conditions still favor sellers.
Homes are changing hands quickly, with a median of just 16 days on market, down about 20 percent compared with last year, and over half are going off market within two weeks. Only about 27 percent of sales are closing above list, and the average sale-to-list ratio is just under 100 percent, suggesting pricing is tight but not overheated. With more inventory, steady demand, and a seller’s market gauge, both buyers and sellers can benefit from having an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate agent to navigate offers, pricing, and timing.
Clayton offers residents a dynamic, walkable community with upscale dining and shopping, excellent schools, abundant parks, and convenient access to major employment hubs and cultural amenities.
Clayton stands apart from nearby St. Louis and University City with its rare mix of walkable urban core and established neighborhoods, all within a compact, highly connected community. Here, modern condo buildings sit near classic brick homes, and many residents can walk from their door to work, school, dining, and parks.
Downtown Clayton serves as the civic and business heart, with major employers, local firms, and an impressive dining scene. Popular spots like Pastaria and 801 Chophouse draw both office workers and longtime residents. Green space is integral to daily life, from Shaw Park with its pool, ice rink, and festivals to the trails and playgrounds of Oak Knoll Park.
Families value the highly regarded Clayton School District, and students and professionals appreciate quick access to Washington University in St. Louis. Cultural and learning hubs such as the Center of Clayton and St. Louis County Library branch support an active, community focused lifestyle.
Because Clayton combines strong schools, limited land, and steady demand, the local market can move quickly. Whether you are planning to sell a home near Richmond Heights or buy your first condo close to downtown, the right timing and preparation matter. Agent Pronto connects both buyers and sellers with a real estate professional who understands how to navigate Clayton’s opportunities.

“Kathy worked with us through viewing nearly 30 homes, and there were many instances of viewing 4 or 5 homes in a single day. Through all that, Kathy remained cognizant of what we were looking for, and was happy to point out things that we may not consider, being first time buyers. Kathy was an excellent help in getting us into our home, and we were happy with the experience overall.”
“Some people come into your life at exactly the right time, and Beckie Davis was one of those people for me. I wasn't simply searching for a house. I was navigating one of the most difficult chapters of my life and looking for a place to begin again. Through every disappointment, obstacle, stressful negotiation, and anxious moment, Beckie was there. Her knowledge, professionalism, patience, and dedication were exceptional, but what truly sets her apart is she genuinely cares about the people she represents, and I never once felt like just another client. On October 22, I closed on my new home and opened a new chapter filled with hope, peace, and possibilities. What began as a professional relationship became a friendship I will forever treasure. Beckie, thank you for walking beside me through this journey and caring about the person behind the purchase. You didn't just help me find a place to live. You helped me find a place to begin again. ❤️”
“After nearly 40 years in our home, my wife and I decided it was time to sell. We worked with Tyler Brown and the Krista Hartmann Home Team. There were a few bumps along the way, but Tyler and his team stayed on top of things and worked through them. In the end, we received a very good offer and were happy with how everything turned out. We appreciate everyone's hard work and would recommend Tyler and the Krista Hartmann Home Team to anyone looking to sell their home.”
“I honestly can’t say enough good things about Tyler Hopkins with The Team Real Estate! When my family and I decided it was time to find a home with more space, we wanted a realtor who was honest, caring, and personable. From the moment we met Tyler, we knew we had found the right person to help us through the process. Tyler made an incredible first impression, and that never changed throughout our experience. He worked extremely hard to make sure my family and I were taken care of and that our needs were always a priority. His communication was outstanding, and he always made sure we knew what was going on throughout the home-buying process. What really stood out to us, though, was how genuine and personable he was. He was always professional, but he also made us feel like more than just another client. Buying a home is a big decision, especially when you're trying to find the right place for your family, and having someone like Tyler in your corner makes all the difference. His honesty, dedication, and willingness to go above and beyond are qualities that you don't always come across. To anyone looking to buy or sell a home, I would recommend Tyler without hesitation. You won't be disappointed. He's not only an incredible realtor but also a genuinely great person who cares about the families he works with. Anyone would be lucky to have him representing them. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!”
“If you are looking for a realtor who truly cares about his clients. He was there every step of the way. Even provided drone shots of the home while we lived out of state. Followed up after closing too making sure everything was good.”
“Absolutely loved working with Kristen and her team! As one can imagine, the home-buying process is not the easiest thing, especially as first-time home buyers, but Kristen made it as easy as it could be. She is incredibly knowledgeable, on top of everything, kept us informed, and never hesitated to answer any and all questions we had, so we were never left wondering about anything that was going on. And, in the end, she helped us land on our very first home, and we couldn't be happier!”
“Mona was great to work with! We did not know her before we met her at a house showing. She worked hard to try and get us the first house we looked at but it did not work out for us. She continued to show us many houses and answered all of our questions. We had not moved in over 30 years, so we had a LOT of questions! When we found the house we eventually bought, she worked very hard to negotiate a good outcome for us. We would recommend Mona.”
“I met the Gellman team several years prior to putting our home on the market. I received a phone call every 6 months to 1 year for continuous follow up on our plan to sell. When we finally decided to put our home on the market, Daniel immediately met with us, evaluated our home and assisted us on a fair market value. He also helped prepare the pre-sale details, got us in touch with the staging department and put his team into action. Our home sold quickly and the final details were ironed out by their contract closing coordinator. Daniel and his team is a group of hard working, dedicated professionals who understand the market well and are looking out for your best outcome.”
“Todd did an amazing job,every time that i needed something or i had a question he was there.He helped us to find the best home and usually it took him less then a minute to respond.Thank you Todd”
“Authenticity and honesty? Do those matter to you? That’s Dennis Ciot! He was very helpful and informative, especially for a 1st time buyer. Any questions or concerns we had, he would respond with a thorough response that reminded us as to why we chose Dennis to handle all the crazy behind the scene headaches so we can focus on our daily routines and not stress over the buying process! Highly recommend!”
“Taylor did an outstanding job in an extremely complex sale in probate. She handled all parties with patience and professionalism. There were many hoops to jump through which she helped navigate the entire process and we were able to close EARLIER than expected.”
“Julie is a fantastic realtor to pick. She is knowledgeable about the St. Louis market and sets realistic expectations while prioritizing her clients’ comfort. We bought during a competitive sellers’ market, and Julie walked us through every step of the way. She goes above and beyond with communication, even after closing, and has been so responsive and willing to troubleshoot issues. Although Julie has other clients, we barely noticed because she manages her time so well and prioritizes all her clients even during the busiest real estate season. We will absolutely go with Julie again in the future and would recommend her to anyone.”
“Heather came highly recommended to me by my sister who bought a home a year prior. I had been scared to start the process and had no idea what buying a home looked like. Heather calmed all of my nerves! At every step she kept us informed, made sure we understood what was going on, and never made me feel embarrassed for asking questions. As a notoriously indecisive person, she was so patient and understanding. I would 1000000% recommend her to anyone looking to Buy a home!”
“Candace was down right amazing! She was an absolute blessing for our entire process, her responsiveness was top tier, she kept us informed, reassured, and very excited for our first home! She could answer any question imaginable and if she didn’t know she would find out right away! We had a long home buying journey, and she stuck it out with us through the entire time! Counts ask for a better realtor for our process, if/when we need a realtor again we will definitely be going back!”
“Stephanie was incredible at marketing and selling our property. We highly recommend her to anyone. We will definitely use her when we sell our next home”
“Angie was available right away to help us look for and find a home. She negotiated down the asking price by $15,000 and negotiated multiple repairs to the property. She followed up with us multiple times a week as first time home buyers to walk us through the home-buying process. She is excellent and I highly recommend her.”
“Brian was amazing. This is the second time we've worked with Brian in 3 years. The first was to purchase our first home, the second was to sell that home and upgrade. He made the process so easy for us, and was always able to get back to us no matter what it was we needed or how silly of a question it was. I recommend anyone who is looking to purchase or sell a home to start with Brian and Elevate Realty, because you will not want to or need to talk to anyone else.”
“Megan is amazing. She will search high and low to find exactly what you’re looking for, and then when you do get an accepted offer, she not only walks you through every step of the process, but she will literally go to bat for you when people aren’t doing what they’re supposed to. She is sweet as pie and left the cutest congratulations gifts in our new home, but has no problem standing up for you when it’s necessary. I truly value every single thing she did to get me and my family into our home. Thank you, Megan! And anyone on the fence? She’s phenomenal. She knows her stuff, inside and out, has an incredible network of professionals for literally anything you could need for your home, and genuinely cares about her clients. So, so grateful that I found her!”
“Kristie Moore, is the best agent to work with. She is very knowledgeable and has a ton of resources to make the process smooth. I have used Kristie Moore in 5 different transcations and it ended with both parties very happy. Agent of the year!!!!”
