Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Lancaster 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 Lancaster County tightened slightly in August, with active listings down about 5 percent from July and roughly 4 percent lower than a year ago. New listings and homes sold also slipped month over month, and pending sales fell nearly 28 percent from July and about 31 percent from last year, pointing to a cooler pace of contracts.
On the pricing side, typical home values are almost flat month to month, dipping about 2 percent since July but edging a little over 1 percent above last year. Median list prices are similarly steady, up marginally from July and only slightly higher year over year, while the average sale-to-list ratio hovers around 99 percent, signaling that closing prices are still very close to asking.
Conditions on the ground show a neutral market, with months of supply at 2.1 locally compared with 2.5 across Nebraska and a median 24 days on market that has lengthened modestly from earlier in the year. A smaller share of homes is selling above list than in recent months, and roughly 42 percent of properties still go under contract within two weeks, highlighting mixed dynamics for negotiations. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting trends can rely on Agent Pronto to connect them with an agent well suited to their goals.

“Working with Kathy Brinkley was one of the best experiences I have ever had selling a home. My previous realtor spent an entire year trying to sell my house without success, blaming the slow market. When I shared my experience with Kathy, she took it as a challenge and sold my house in just three months! Her communication was excellent, and she kept me informed throughout the entire process, making everything smooth and stress-free. Kathy is knowledgeable, professional, dedicated, and truly understands the real estate market. Instead of making excuses, she finds solutions and delivers results.

“It was great to once again work with Debra Mcelroy to find a new house. She had previously helped me find my first house in Virginia and this year, she helped me sell that house and purchase a new one.

She sold my house quickly and for a great price, then help me successfully win the bidding on the house I really wanted to purchase.

Her knowledge and experience were evident throughout and made the difference in several difficult situations.”

She helped with scheduling home inspections and closing paperwork along with HOA communication. I would definitely use Scarlett again and would highly recommend her to friends and family.”
