“From the start of our home search and our home sale Nicole was very responsive, knowledgeable, trustworthy, respectful and communicative. Nicole did a lot of behind-the-scenes work on both our sale and our purchase to make sure we were satisfied and got the best deal possible on both ends. She was able to give us professional recommendations and suggestions throughout the process that helped us make decisions when it came to certain things. I would highly recommend her to other people who are looking to sell or purchase a home.”

Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jun 2026).
Year-over-year, Tompkins County’s typical home value in June 2026 is down nearly 12 percent, while the median list price is lower by about 6 percent, signaling some price relief compared with last year. At the same time, homes sold fell roughly 12 percent from a year ago, highlighting softer closed sales activity even as prices ease.
From a supply standpoint, the picture has shifted noticeably, with active listings up about 16 percent year over year and months of supply surging more than 140 percent to 4.2 months, pushing conditions toward a more balanced environment. Reflecting this slower pace, the median days on market has jumped more than fourfold from last June to 59 days, and a smaller share of homes, about 22 percent, are now selling above list price.
Looking at June alone, Tompkins County recorded a typical home value of about $379,000 and a median list price close to $377,000, with 353 homes on the market and 71 sales closed. Compared with New York State overall, where the median sale price is roughly $553,000 and months of supply sits lower at 3.8, local buyers are seeing relatively more options while sellers face more selective demand, and Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an experienced agent to navigate these conditions.
