May 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026).
Year over year, Cooper County’s prices have edged down while activity has picked up. The typical home value is about 12% lower than a year ago, and the median list price is down around 3%. At the same time, homes sold have jumped roughly 52% and new listings are up about 54%, signaling more movement on both sides of the closing table.
In the latest May 2026 snapshot, the typical home value sits at about $243,000, with a median list price near $272,000. Homes are spending a median of 28 days on the market, a sharp drop from earlier in the year, and there are 67 active listings, up about a quarter from April as months of supply has risen to 3.5.
Compared with Missouri overall, Cooper County’s prices are below the statewide median sale price of roughly $294,000, while its 3.5 months of supply is slightly higher than the state’s 3 months. No homes have been closing above list price recently, suggesting buyers may have more room to negotiate even as the area is still categorized as a seller’s market. Buyers can use these trends to time their offers and understand pricing, while sellers can gauge how quickly well-priced homes are moving, and Agent Pronto can help both sides connect with an agent who knows the Cooper County market in detail.
Cooper County offers residents a welcoming, close-knit community with strong schools, safe neighborhoods, abundant outdoor recreation, and a growing mix of local businesses and cultural activities.
Cooper County stands out from nearby Boone and Pettis counties with its quieter pace and deep agricultural roots set along the Missouri River. Communities like Boonville offer historic brick streets, grand Victorian homes, and easy access to the Katy Trail State Park, which appeals to cyclists, runners, and weekend explorers from across central Missouri.
Life here centers on community events and local institutions. Families appreciate strong local schools such as Boonville R-I School District and easy access to the J. Huston Tavern and historic Arrow Rock State Historic Site. Riverfront recreation at Missouri River access points and the trailhead in Boonville keeps residents connected to the outdoors, while small towns like Pilot Grove and Otterville maintain a close knit, small town feel.
Downtown Boonville’s Houghton Burrell Memorial Library and local eateries give the county a self contained character that still sits within commuting distance of Columbia and Jefferson City. Housing options range from historic homes near the river to farm properties and newer builds outside town centers.
With demand influenced by nearby university and state government employment, timing and preparation matter. Whether you are planning a move into Cooper County or considering selling while conditions are favorable, Agent Pronto can connect you with a knowledgeable local real estate professional who understands how to position both buyers and sellers for success.
