Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Stone County real estate market. *
September 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 (Sep 2026).
Stone County is currently classified as a buyer's market, with inventory building and homes taking longer to sell. Active listings are up about 14 percent from a year ago, reaching 693 homes. Months of supply has more than doubled year over year to 7.2, signaling that buyers have far more options than in the broader Missouri market, which sits at 3.4 months.
Contract activity shows a mixed picture as supply grows. Homes sold in September ticked up slightly from the prior month, yet are roughly flat compared with a year ago, while pending sales are down about 13 percent year over year. New listings, on the other hand, have surged nearly 28 percent compared with last year, and the share of homes going off market within two weeks is about 27 percent, suggesting that well-priced homes can still move quickly.
Pricing is adjusting to this looser environment. The typical home value is down about 5 percent from last year, and the median list price has dropped roughly 19 percent year over year, giving buyers more room to shop and negotiate. Even so, sellers are still achieving close to asking price, with the average sale-to-list ratio just over 99 percent, and homes are spending a median of 79 days on the market, up sharply from a year ago. In a market where conditions vary by price range and property type, Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands these shifting trends in Stone County.
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.

“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Thank you Beckie!! Without you, we had no idea this was possible. She took the time to show us how purchasing our first home was much more attainable than we thought. She consistently made excellent suggestions, shared information, and kept us very updated on the process. She broke everything down so we could understand. She was always there to answer our texts and calls. If she doesn't know the answer to something, she FINDS the answer. That is incredibly valuable in customer service. Her care, compassion, and fun vibes really made this experience. Beckie is the best!!”
“Daniel Cornell is an excellent realtor who looks out for the needs of his clients. This process was very unique and some what uncharted than any other way of selling properties and land. Daniel always communicated with us during every step of the process and represented us with professionalism and honesty that are not always displayed by realtors. We appreciated all the work and sacrifice he made to make this transition happen in a timely manner and we would recommend Daniel to anyone looking to purchase or sell their home. Job well done and truly a great person to work with.”
“Jennifer Prine is an amazing person and will do everything she can to help you on a very step on the way..”
“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.”
“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.”
“I was amazed you found an agent to handle the sale of my property mere hours after I contacted you very late in the evening. I was contacted by Kim first thing the following morning & within a week to 10 days, we had an offer. I didn't even think we'd be able to sell but Kim was positive & encouraging. I couldn't have done this without her.”
“I was looking to purchase an investment property in the Kansas City Area and i was referred to Seth from a friend. Being from out of state I didn’t know a vast amount about the local tax code, markets, or rental rates. Seth demonstrated to me that throughout our buying process, he was extremely knowledgeable about the specific market that I was looking to purchase in, which ended up being Warrensburg, MO. Several times Seth went above the call to help me out. One of those times was when I needed an inspector, he gave me a recommendation, but without hesitating he also called around to try and get me the best price possible. The same above and beyond service was offered to me when we were shopping for insurance. Seth made it easy to choose an insurance company because he helped me compare rates and let me know what was a reasonable rate based on the property type I was looking at. In the end my deal didn’t go through due to financing falling through. This is no reflection on the quality of Seth’s service to me. I will absolutely still be purchasing a property through Seth in the near future! You will not be disappointed if you choose Sold By Seth!”
“We were viewing some houses in Ozark and just weren’t finding anything we loved, so Dave looked and found another house a neighborhood over from where we where and when we saw it we fell in love! The house we bought went on the market the morning we viewed it at 10am, and by 2pm we were putting in an offer. Dave was a trooper and showed us houses in many areas because we weren’t sure exactly what we wanted and he was there every step of the way!”
“By far the best person to work with. Made the whole process of buying our new home as simple and painless as possible. Couldn't have asked for anyone better. Will definitely recommend to anyone looking for a realtor.”
“Overall everything went extremely well. Rob was very knowledgeable and helpful. Initial response was very fast. I couldn't have been more pleased! ”
