Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly Inventory and Sales Activity for Douglas County
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 (Aug 2026).
Inventory in Douglas County has shifted notably this August, with active listings up slightly from last month while homes sold dropped sharply. Months of supply has surged to 11.9, far above Missouri’s 3.2 months, reinforcing the county’s status as a strong buyer’s market.
Contract activity has cooled, as pending sales are down both month over month and compared with last year, even though new listings are up year over year. Homes are still moving faster than a month ago, with median days on market falling from 78 in July to 46 in August, but they are spending more time on the market than they did a year earlier.
Prices are reacting to this softer demand in mixed ways, with the typical home value up more than 30 percent from last year but the median list price dropping sharply from July even as it remains well above last year’s level. Sellers are also having to negotiate more, as the average sale-to-list ratio sits around 95 percent and no recent sales closed above asking price. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting conditions can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who understands the Douglas County market.
