Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).

Dayton is currently tilted toward sellers, with the market gauge indicating a seller’s market and only 2.1 months of supply in this rolling three-month view through June 2026. With just 39 active listings and 22 homes sold, limited inventory is helping keep conditions relatively tight for buyers.

Prices are holding fairly steady overall, as the typical home value of about $555,000 is down only modestly, roughly 4 percent compared with a year ago. At the same time, the share of homes selling above list has dropped sharply year over year, from 100 percent last June to about 43 percent now, suggesting buyers have a bit more negotiating room than they did last summer.

Demand patterns have shifted as well, with pending sales up more than 10 percent year over year even as closed sales declined by about the same amount. Homes are taking much longer to sell than a year ago, with median days on market jumping from 49 to 62 days, yet the average sale-to-list ratio is still near 100 percent, showing sellers can achieve prices close to asking when they find the right buyer. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these mixed signals in Dayton can use Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who understands the latest trends.

“This is the second time I’ve worked with Matthew Tully to sell a home, and once again, he exceeded my expectations. Matthew is professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. He developed an excellent pricing and marketing strategy that resulted in my house selling quickly and for above the asking price. Throughout the entire process, he kept me informed, answered all of my questions promptly, and made everything as smooth and stress-free as possible. His attention to detail, strong negotiation skills, and commitment to his clients truly set him apart. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome and highly recommend Matthew Tully to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. The fact that I chose to work with him a second time speaks for itself. Thank you, Matthew, for another outstanding job!”

“My agent was Lucy Phelan at Keller Williams, and I had a great experience working with both Lucy and her brother Richard. Both had provided me with their expert advice, they would take extra steps to educate you and walk you thru the home shopping process. They would work on my schedule, try their best to answer all my questions and would point me to the right direction when I was looking for the lender, inspector, lawyer, etc. As a home buyer in this "Bidding War" market, most of my offers were turned down; however, both Lucy and Rich have continuously provided me encouragement to keep trying and looking. I cannot remember how many houses we have looked together...and when I was not able to look at the houses in person, they would video call me to conduct a virtual home showing. In general, they are exceptionally good with people skill, nice/friendly people to talk with and they show care on other things then just home buying. I would like to work with them again in the future and would recommend them to any home buyer/seller.”
