“My first time selling a home and I was paired with the right agent(Katherina Michalopoulos). Everything that I needed to know, Katherina taught me and any problems that arose, she took control to find an answer as to how we were to proceed. I considered her a partner in the transaction, not just an agent. Even though Katherina was working for me, it never felt that way.”

Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Merriman Valley real estate market, updated for October 2025. *
The typical home value in Merriman Valley is projected to be $225,050 for the month of October. September’s finalized data reported the typical value of a home in the neighborhood to be $228,000—down 14.61% over the previous 12 months. For comparison, city-level data pegged home values at $128,000 in Akron for the most recent reporting period. That number is expected to float around $115,500 in October.
Merriman Valley had 24 new listings and 17 listings that went under contract in September, increasing the area’s total available inventory to 14—up 7.69% from the previous month. Inventory is projected to have further increased in October.
The median listing price for homes in Merriman Valley fell 7.96% from August to September, bringing the current median listing price to $216,200. Based on projected data for October, listing prices may continue to fall.
The number of days that homes have been on the market prior to going under contract has been fairly steady year-over-year. In September 2025, the median time for a listed property to go pending was 40 days, compared to 41 days in September 2024. However, in recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be falling. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this October.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Merriman Valley offers residents a welcoming blend of green spaces, historic charm, and convenient access to parks, trails, and nearby amenities, inspiring a strong sense of community.
Merriman Valley balances city convenience with an outdoor mindset, sitting at the north end of Akron and a quick hop from Cuyahoga Falls. As the city’s gateway to Cuyahoga Valley National Park, weekends often start on the Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail, with trailheads, waterfalls, and wildlife close enough for spontaneous hikes or bike rides. Local runners and families also frequent Sand Run Metro Park for shaded paths, sledding hills, and creek-stomping in summer. Between trail time and river views, the neighborhood’s patios, coffee stops, and casual eateries give residents easygoing spots to refuel, while the indie arts and music scene in Highland Square is just minutes away.
Families value the education options: the area is served by Akron Public Schools, with many high schoolers attending Firestone CLC, noted for its International Baccalaureate program, strong arts offerings, and competitive athletics. Housing spans townhomes and condos tucked along wooded hillsides, river-view apartments, and quiet single-family streets—appealing to first-time buyers, downsizers, and anyone seeking a little more sky and trees without giving up a short commute. Quick access to major routes keeps downtown employers, university campuses, and regional amenities within easy reach, and seasonal events—from farmers markets to ride nights on the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad—keep calendars full.
