Central State real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Central State real estate market, updated for May 2026. *
Home values in Central State are moving around notably, with the typical home value at $245,000 in March 2026, down about 8.75% from last year but up more than 30% from the prior month, while the broader city of Schenectady sits a bit lower at $225,000. Projections suggest values in Central State could reach about $273,750 next month.
Listing activity is fairly limited right now, with only 4 new listings in March and just 2 homes on the market. That is a drop of 60% in inventory from the previous month and about one third lower than a year ago. Fewer options for buyers contrast with a seller’s market reading on the local gauge, which is currently at level 3.
Homes are taking much longer to move, spending a median of 221 days on the market, a sharp increase from both last month and last year. Pending sales fell about 22% year over year, and none of the recent sales closed above list price, with an average sale-to-list ratio of about 0.94. With median list prices around $279,500 in March and projected near $275,750 in April, both buyers and sellers in Central State can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help in finding an agent who understands these shifting conditions.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
