Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
Year-over-year, Rochester’s rolling three-month home values are essentially flat, with the typical home value down only a fraction of a percent to about $430,000, even as the median list price is up nearly 6 percent. At the same time, inventory and activity have expanded, with active listings up about 20 percent and homes sold rising more than 18 percent from a year ago.
In the most recent rolling three-month period ending in August 2026, buyers saw a median days on market of 38 days, noticeably slower than a year earlier. Months of supply has climbed to 2.1 months, a roughly 31 percent increase year over year, which gives shoppers a bit more breathing room even though conditions still favor sellers.
Pricing power has eased somewhat, as the share of homes selling above list has slipped to about 51 percent and the average sale-to-list ratio has edged just above 101 percent, both down from last year. With new listings up nearly 13 percent and pending sales higher by about 16 percent year over year, both sides are active in this seller’s market, and Agent Pronto can help both buyers and sellers connect with a skilled Rochester agent to navigate it effectively.
