Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026).

Inventory and contract activity in Howard County have shifted notably in recent months, with active listings down slightly from last month but still up more than 19 percent from a year ago. New listings have slowed month over month, yet they remain dramatically higher than last year, and pending sales are up more than 36 percent year over year, signaling that more deals are moving toward closing.

Pricing is adjusting to these conditions, as the typical home value has risen about 12 percent from June even while sitting more than 20 percent below last July. Sellers are generally testing the market below state-level prices, with Howard County’s typical home value trailing Missouri’s broader median, and no recent sales closing above list.

Speed has picked up sharply, with the median days on market dropping to just 7 days compared to far longer times earlier this year, even as months of supply has climbed to 3.5 and is slightly above the statewide level. With homes moving faster but prices still below last year and inventory improving, both buyers and sellers can benefit from working with Agent Pronto to find the right local real estate agent to guide their decisions.

“Chris was absolutely fantastic throughout our entire home buying process. He was knowledgeable, responsive, patient, and always willing to answer our questions or help us work through any concerns we had. Buying our first home was stressful at times, but Chris made the process much easier and always made us feel like we were in good hands. He genuinely cared about helping us find the right home and went above and beyond to make sure everything came together. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and would highly recommend Chris Smith to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. We’re extremely grateful to have had him as our realtor!”

“We had to navigate a home sale in a market where the bottom dropped out due to economy not being great. Kathy's experience and dedication was the reason we were able to sell in such a tough market. Kathy brought in a team that assisted in marketing the home on several digital media platforms and provided market trend analysis so we would know where to set our pricing for optimal buyer interest. She even steered me away from a couple of bad decisions that I was actually considering in my attempts to sell faster. In a very stressy period of our lives, Kathy did an amazing job at keeping us focused on the best solutions. She will be my go to if and when I decide to buy or sell a home in the STL area. Thanks so much, Kathy!”
