Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Dallas County real estate market. *
September 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 (Sep 2026).
Dallas County home values have climbed over the past year, with the typical home value up nearly 20 percent. Median list prices also rose about 4 percent year over year, showing sellers are generally asking more than a year ago. Compared with Missouri overall, where prices grew around 4 percent, this county has seen much stronger appreciation.
In the latest September snapshot, the typical home value sits around $239,000, while the median list price is closer to $256,000. Homes are spending a median of 40 days on the market, down about 10 percent from last year and sharply lower than just a few months ago when times on market were much longer.
Sales activity has picked up, with homes sold in September jumping more than 50 percent from a year earlier even though new listings fell by double digits. Inventory is steady at 76 active listings, and months of supply has tightened to 3.2 months, pointing to less slack than earlier in the year even as conditions are still labeled a buyer’s market. The average sale-to-list ratio of about 97 percent and a negligible share of homes closing above list suggest buyers retain some negotiating power. Whether you are planning to buy or sell, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local Dallas County agent who understands these trends and can guide your next move.
Dallas County offers residents a welcoming blend of small-town charm, abundant outdoor recreation, solid schools, and a supportive, active community that helps families and local businesses thrive.
Dallas County feels distinctly rural and close knit compared with more rapidly growing neighbors like Greene County and bustling Springfield. Here, open countryside, small towns such as Buffalo and Urbana, and a slower pace define everyday life, while larger city amenities remain an easy drive away.
Outdoor enjoyment is a major part of local identity. Locals head to Bennett Spring State Park for trout fishing and hiking, or explore the nearby Niangua River for floating and kayaking. Families make regular stops at Dallas County R-I School District events, and community life often centers around ballgames, church gatherings, and small business hubs along Buffalo’s historic square.
Daily basics are accessible without giving up the rural feel. Local services, clinics, and shops support residents, while bigger-box shopping and employment options in Lebanon and Springfield expand choices. The Dallas County Library and county fairgrounds add educational and cultural touchpoints that reinforce the area’s sense of community.
For buyers, Dallas County offers a range of properties, from in-town homes to acreages suitable for hobby farms or future building. For sellers, understanding buyer demand from both locals and people relocating from nearby cities is crucial. Timing, pricing, and preparation matter in this evolving market, and Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with the right local real estate professional to navigate each step confidently.
See why so many people rely on Agent Pronto to make their real estate journey a success.

She was extremely thorough and had such attention to detail we felt like we're were there walking the house in person. She was very honest when we asked her opinion yet not pushing in any way.

“Marla Roberts is exceptionally personable and is extremely knowledgeable as a Real Estate Agent. She was able to show me many homes with precise information about the home itself AND surrounding neighborhoods. However I was unable to secure a purchase in her home area. Then I found some possibilities in a new town and asked her on a whim.........if she could be my Buyers Agent in this new area.......the answer was "yes" and she even had a good understanding of the new location as well! She is also a good detective..... when I needed more information about a roof and she had to research back two owners to find some answers!! I would always recommend Marla Roberts as a one of the Best Agents for her sincerity and professionalism in the Real Estate business .”
