Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Hickory County real estate market, updated for March 2026. *
Homes in Hickory County are moving at a moderate pace, with 45 properties on the market and 8 new listings in the latest month. Pending sales reached 12, indicating steady contract activity even as new listings are down sharply from a year ago. Fewer homes coming up for sale, combined with a months-of-supply figure of 5, keeps conditions tilted toward sellers.
Prices have been reacting strongly to these dynamics, with the typical home value climbing to about $220,000 after a more than 37 percent jump over the past year. List prices are adjusting more modestly, with a median list price of roughly $259,750 and a month-over-month dip of about 5.5 percent.
Days on market tell a mixed story, rising to 38 over the past month but still down significantly compared with a year earlier, while about 20 percent of sellers have reduced their asking price. No recent sales closed above list price, suggesting buyers have some room to negotiate even in a seller’s market, and Hickory County values still sit below the Missouri typical value of $270,600. With projected inventory edging down to 43 homes next month and a projected typical home value of $265,000, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding a local agent who understands these shifting conditions.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Hickory County offers residents a close-knit community, abundant outdoor recreation, affordable living, and services that support families, farmers, and small businesses.
Hickory County offers a quieter, more traditional rural lifestyle than nearby lake resort destinations, while still giving residents easy access to Springfield and Camdenton. Centered around Hermitage, the county appeals to people who value small-town connections, open space, and affordable property options close to the water. Nearby Humansville and Polk County add employment, shopping, and healthcare choices within a reasonable drive.
Pomme de Terre Lake is the local centerpiece, offering boating, fishing, and camping at Pomme de Terre State Park. Families and retirees alike appreciate the slower pace, along with community anchors such as Hermitage R-IV School District and events hosted through the Hickory County Library. Outdoor enthusiasts spend weekends at Hickory County R-C Fairgrounds and nearby Lucas Oil Speedway for regional attractions that still feel close to home.
For buyers, competition can be surprisingly strong for waterfront cabins, small farms, and in-town homes, especially in peak lake season. For longtime residents considering selling, understanding current demand from second-home buyers and those relocating from larger cities is critical to pricing correctly and timing the market. Whether you are moving into your first Hickory County home or planning a transition within the community, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local real estate professional who understands the area and can guide both buyers and sellers through a well-prepared move.

“It was GREAT to work with Marissa! She asked all the right questions and found all the right answers. Communication was excellent every step of the way, and she found the perfect buyer for our home. I highly recommend her for her professionalism, communication and overall dedication to a great sale!”
“Chris is the greatest realtor. I would recommend him to anyone who needs help with buying or selling a house. He was my seller's agent (my house sold within 3 days!) and also our buyer's agent for the new house. What we liked about Chris: he kept in contact, checked in frequently and kept us posted with any updates he received during the process. We could ask questions and received prompt answers. Chris always had our best interest in mind. Not only did he jump through any hoop for us, we also got over flooring transitions together. It is evident that Chris loves what he does and is not just there for collecting a commission: Making sure people find their homes!”
“Amanda helped me find the right place in the area and within my budget. She helped me get all the information I needed and did video walkthroughs that helped me see the different propertries as I was not in the local area. The buying process went smoothly and I was able to close earlier than originally planned. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Jon has been my realtor for years, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else. He brings decades of experience while staying on top of current market trends, which made the entire purchase smooth and strategic. Knowledgeable, reliable, and always one step ahead.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 – Highly Recommend Sean Moore! As a first-time home buyer, I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor than Sean Moore with RE/MAX. From start to finish, the entire process went extremely smooth, and that’s 100% because of Sean. Sean was always responsive, communicated clearly, and took the time to thoroughly explain every step of the process so I always knew exactly what was going on. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and it’s obvious he has years of experience—something that made a huge difference when navigating my first home purchase. On top of that, Sean was excellent at negotiating and helped me get the exact price I wanted on the house I wanted. There were no issues, no surprises, and no stress—everything went flawlessly. If you’re looking for a realtor who is professional, experienced, patient, and truly has your best interests in mind, Sean Moore is the one. I’d recommend him to anyone without hesitation. 10 out of 10!”
“Kathy has assisted us in purchasing 10 homes in the area. She knows what we are looking for and always keeps our best interest at heart. I trust Kathy implicitly and will continue to work with only her on our housing journey!!”
“Freeman is one heck of a young man. He will do whatever it takes to get thr best deal for you. He is reliable and kind. I have used 4 other realtors in my life and I would pick Freeman again.”
“Jenn was great to work with and answered all our questions promptly. Even when we had multiple questions on the same day. Would HIGHLY recommend working with her.”
“Patty and Alexa are a complete team with a proven strategy that delivered an outstanding outcome—our home sold quickly and at a price above our expectations. With their guidance, we showcased our home in a way that truly inspired potential buyers. Their deep experience in our local market, combined with broad exposure through their network, helped us push through a very challenging first weekend on the market—a cold, gloomy November weekend. Despite that rough start, we received the offer we were hoping for that same weekend. An accepted offer is just the beginning, and Patty expertly shepherded the process all the way to closing. While this wasn’t our first home sale, the market has changed, and there were many things we didn’t know we didn’t know—but Patty and Alexa did. Their knowledge and confidence gave us tremendous peace of mind. It’s easy to see why they are so successful; highly recommend them to anyone looking for experienced, trusted professionals to help sell their home.”
