Year-over-year, Hartwell’s rolling three-month numbers show notable shifts in both prices and activity. Typical home values are down compared with a year ago, yet the median list price has jumped more than 30 percent, indicating sellers are aiming higher even as buyers gain a bit more pricing leverage.
On the activity side, homes sold in this three-month window are up sharply from last year, and new listings have also risen well over 100 percent. Inventory has more than doubled, but months of supply has dropped dramatically compared with a year ago, underscoring that homes are still being absorbed quickly despite the higher number of options.
Looking at the latest data through September 2026, Hartwell’s typical home value is about $199,000, with a median list price around $247,000 and just 1.6 months of supply, signaling a seller’s market that is tighter than the broader Cincinnati area at 4.1 months. Nearly half of recent sales closed above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio sits just above 100 percent, so pricing strategy and negotiation remain critical for both buyers and sellers, and Agent Pronto can connect each with an agent who knows how to navigate these conditions.
