Homes here now typically run about $372,450, well above the Columbus city average of $286,000. At the same time, inventory has tightened significantly compared with last year, dropping 22.54 percent.
Looking at February 2026, the market shows some cooling at the margins while still favoring sellers. Typical home value and median list price both eased 0.68 percent month over month, landing near $372,450 for values and $367,450 for list prices, and homes are taking longer to sell with median days on market up 26.81 percent from the prior month to about 87.5 days.
Supply and demand are still in seller’s territory, reflected in a seller's market gauge reading of 16 and just 110 active listings, even after a 9.09 percent month-over-month drop in inventory. New listings fell sharply by 50 percent year over year to 66, while pending sales are down 18.82 percent, and only 14 percent of homes recently sold above list with an average sale-to-list ratio near 0.99. Projections for March 2026 suggest values and list prices may edge down slightly to about $371,175 and $366,200 with inventory near 104, and both buyers and sellers can use Agent Pronto to connect with an experienced local 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.
