Jefferson County real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Jefferson County real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Jefferson County currently leans toward sellers, with low supply and steady buyer interest keeping conditions tight. With just 1.8 months of supply and 381 homes on the market, buyers face limited options while sellers benefit from solid demand.
Home values are pushing upward, with a typical home value of about $305,000, up 5.17% from last year and 3.57% in the past month. By comparison, Missouri overall sits lower at $282,300, suggesting Jefferson County is pricing above the state average. Listing prices are adjusting slightly, with the median list price at $299,900, down 3.23% month over month, while projections show it near $294,900 in April 2026.
Homes are selling faster than a month ago, now taking a median of 29 days on market, a 14.71% drop from the prior month, even though days on market are still up sharply year over year. Roughly 25.7% of listings saw a price drop, yet about 41.6% of homes sold above list, and the average sale-to-list ratio is just over 1.00, indicating many sellers still achieve or beat their asking price. Inventory and new listings are both edging higher, with active listings up 4.1% month over month and new listings up 16.27% year over year, offering buyers a bit more choice. Whether buyers want help navigating limited supply or sellers aim to capitalize on strong pricing, Agent Pronto can connect both with a skilled local agent.
