Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026 - Aug 2026).
Dayton currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge signaling a seller’s market even as conditions cool. Typical home values in this rolling three-month view are down about 12 percent year over year, and median list prices are also lower than a year ago, pointing to some pricing relief for buyers.
Inventory and activity have both eased compared with last year, which helps explain the shift in pace. Active listings are slightly lower year over year, homes sold are down around 7 percent, and new listings have fallen more than a quarter, so there is less fresh stock coming to market.
Timing has become more important, as homes are taking longer to sell while still commanding strong prices relative to list. Median days on market are up about 22 percent year over year, yet the average sale-to-list price ratio is holding near 100 percent and more than a third of recent sales closed above asking, reflecting solid seller leverage. Buyers and sellers who want to understand how these mixed signals affect their plans can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who knows how to navigate Dayton’s current conditions.

“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.”
