Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Stone County real estate market. *
August 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
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 Stone County is relatively high, with about 679 active listings in August and 7.8 months of supply. New listings have dropped sharply over the past month and are down more than 20 percent from a year ago, while pending sales are also lower than last year. Even with fewer new listings coming on, homes are taking longer to sell, with the median days on market climbing to about 73.
Prices are still higher than last year, but recent movement shows some softening. The typical home value is up around 14 percent year over year, yet it slipped nearly 6 percent from July to August, and the average sale-to-list ratio has edged down to about 94 percent.
Compared with the broader Missouri market, Stone County has higher home values and much more inventory relative to sales, reinforcing its current status as a buyer’s market. Homes are also less likely to go under contract quickly here, with only about 28 percent going off the market within two weeks. With this mix of rising long-term prices, slower sales, and more room for negotiation, conditions can be confusing to navigate. Agent Pronto can connect buyers looking for value and sellers aiming to price wisely with a local real estate agent who understands these trends.
Stone County offers residents a welcoming mix of outdoor recreation, tight-knit communities, and practical services that support families and everyday life.
Stone County stands out from nearby Springfield and Greene County with its deep connection to Table Rock Lake and a relaxed, small‑town pace that still offers easy access to Branson’s entertainment. Residents value the balance of quiet coves, forested hills, and tight community networks that define everyday life here.
In Galena, the county seat, historic buildings along the James River reflect the area’s roots, while nearby Kimberling City and Branson West draw lake lovers with marinas, fishing, and boating culture. Families appreciate access to schools like Reeds Spring R-IV School District, as well as programs at the Stone County Library that anchor the community year‑round.
Outdoor recreation shapes local identity. Residents spend weekends at Table Rock State Park, hiking, camping, and getting on the water, while Dogwood Canyon Nature Park offers trails, biking, and wildlife viewing. Everyday conveniences are close at hand, from locally owned restaurants to services clustered along the Branson corridor.
For buyers, understanding each pocket of Stone County, from lake subdivisions to rural acreage, is essential in a market where inventory and seasonal demand shift quickly. Sellers benefit from smart preparation, pricing, and timing that reflect how buyers search for lake access, school districts, and short‑term rental potential. Agent Pronto connects both buyers and sellers with a local agent who understands Stone County’s unique market rhythms and can help you move at the right moment.

“Amanda Greenwood went over and above. Because we are purchasing while living in a different state, we needed to have virtual walk throughs done. She showed all the good and the bad in every showing. She was extremely thorough and had such attention to detail we felt like we're were there walking the house in person. She was very honest when we asked her opinion yet not pushing in any way. He husband Chris was also wonderful to work with as he gave a second opinion and was very helpful. We could not have made this work without the help of this team. We are very greatful for everything she did to find us our perfect home. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
