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).
Year-over-year, Lewis and Clark County’s home values are essentially flat, with the typical home value in August 2026 down only a fraction of a percent while the statewide median is up more notably. At the same time, the share of active listings has dropped nearly 13 percent from last year, pointing to tighter inventory than buyers saw a year ago.
Looking at the latest month, buyers are seeing slightly more favorable pricing, with the median list price down about 2 percent from last year and just over 1 percent from July. However, months of supply has fallen nearly 26 percent annually to 3.9 months, keeping conditions tilted toward sellers even as it rose month over month.
On the activity side, sales volume is a bit softer, with homes sold down almost 7 percent year over year and new listings down more than 17 percent. Yet pending sales are up almost 15 percent compared with last year, and typical days on market have shortened to 65 days, signaling steady demand. With Lewis and Clark County classified as a seller’s market but showing mixed signals for buyers, both sides can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate agent who understands these local trends and can help buyers and sellers navigate them confidently.
