Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly Inventory and Sales Activity for Polk 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 (Sep 2026).
Inventory in Polk County has been building, with active listings up about 13 percent over the past year and sitting at 204 homes in September. Contract activity has cooled somewhat, as homes sold are down roughly 16 percent year over year and pending sales are only slightly higher than a year ago.
Pricing is adjusting to this shift, with the typical home value down about 11 percent year over year, even as the median list price has climbed nearly 19 percent. Buyers also have more leverage than in much of Missouri, as months of supply in Polk County has surged to 5.2 compared with about 3.4 months across the state.
Marketing times have shortened despite the added inventory, with the median days on market dropping 18 percent from a year ago to about 25 days. With no recent sales closing above list price and the area classified as a buyer’s market, conditions differ notably from many other parts of the state, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who understands these dynamics.

“Danielle was so professional throughout this whole contract period. She was on top of everything anytime something that would come up or need to be done. She was right there. I would highly recommend her! Very pleasant to work with. Would do business again with her in a heartbeat, if the need arises. A big thank you goes out to her and her staff.”
“My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Sonia N’kulu when we purchased two properties in Nixa, Missouri, this summer. From the very beginning, Sonia made the experience easy and enjoyable. She was attentive to what we were looking for, always available when we needed her, and guided us professionally through every step of both purchases. She is very professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and truly knows the real estate business. She took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and was always willing to accommodate our schedule. She even made herself available on weekends to show us properties, which we greatly appreciated. Sonia patiently answered all of our questions, gave us helpful and honest guidance, and made the entire process—from searching for properties through closing—smooth and straightforward. We always felt that she had our best interests in mind, and we were extremely satisfied with how she handled both of our purchases. Based on our experience, we would absolutely work with Sonia again. We highly recommend Sonia N’kulu to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Springfield, Nixa, Republic, Ozark, Branson, or the surrounding areas. She is a true professional who knows her job, cares about her clients, and goes the extra mile to make sure they are satisfied. Five stars without hesitation!”
“Freeman did a perfect job finding us a home for our family! He was very nice and informative. Always on time and willng to do anything that you request on either buying or selling a home. He took the time to get to know our needs and requirements to help locate the right house for us. We would recommend him to any of our family or friends!”
“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 .”
“Just hire him. If you’re looking through reviews, let this be the one that convinces you. He goes way above and beyond what you’d think a realtors scope would be. Very hands on, very down to earth, incredible to work with. He helped us find repairmen for selling our house, took our must-have list and worked well within our limits, and spoke with us realistically on pros and cons for each house we looked at. He helped find a house that was a 10/10 for us, and didn't let us settle for anything less.”
“Janet was outstanding. She really knows her stuff, and she was always available when we needed to talk with her. Overall she was helpful, professional, and communicative throughout the process. We cannot recommend her enough!”
“I have worked with Bonni for over 5 years now. She is a stellar realtor to be on either side of the table with you! Incredible work ethic. Highly intellegent, fast-paced and professional. She knows what she's doing and what's she's talking about. For as long as she's in the industry, she will be my TOP pick for the hectic house shopping or selling experience.”
“Marin was an absolute pleasure to work with during the process of purchasing my new home. From start to finish, she was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient. I had many questions, and Marin made sure to walk me through every step, ensuring I felt confident and informed throughout. What really stood out to me was how much she cared about finding the perfect place, not just for me, but also for my new puppy, a golden retriever. Marin took the time to understand our needs, showing me homes with great yards and spaces that would be ideal for both of us. Her attention to detail and understanding of my priorities made the process smooth and stress-free. Thanks to Marin, I’m now settled into a home that’s perfect for both my puppy and me. If you’re looking for a realtor who listens, cares, and goes above and beyond, Marin is the one to call. I couldn’t be happier with the experience!”
“Karolina did an excellent job. This was our first home purchase and she made the process easy. She excelled at constant communication with us. I would highly recommend Karolina.”
“Kirk and Barbara Hewitt are absolutely TOP NOTCH!!! They are honest, hard-working, and know the workings of the real estate industry inside and out! Whether you are buying or selling I recommend them highly!! We first met them when we bought a home they had listed and we later used them to sell our old home so we have dealt with them on both sides of buying/selling. They are absolutely the best !”
“Kinsey is an outstanding realtor! She invested so much time and energy into finding our family the perfect home. Her knowledge and professionalism helped us through the entire home buying process. We are so grateful for her dedication and hard work. Kinsey exceeded all of our expectations and we recommend her to everyone we know!”
“If you want a Realtor that you can trust and listens to you on what you want then look no further. We live 6 hrs from where my wife and I were wanting to buy and had already made several trips to look when a place opened up that was in the area and had everything we were wanting. She contacted us and told us about it. We were actually on our way home from being down there so we told her it would be a month before we could make it back down. We had been communicating back and forth long enough that my wife and I had built trust in Angie so we asked her if she would go and do a live video chat with us so we could see it right away. She agreed and we ended up liking the place so we started the paper work right away. All because of her commitment to us and finding us exactly what we were wanting. So if you are looking in Angie's area call her.”
“Randy Thomas and his team, Team Randy Thomas, are absolutely phenomenal! Their knowledge and experience with the Greater Springfield area is top notch! You won't get lost in a group of clients. Emily Blink is the best assistant with communication and knowledge to assist those that are thinking about buying and/or selling as well!”
“Overall everything went extremely well. Rob was very knowledgeable and helpful. Initial response was very fast. I couldn't have been more pleased! ”
