Year over year, Jefferson County’s typical home value is up by more than 15 percent, even though the latest monthly figure dipped from June. Median list prices also rose compared with last year, but they pulled back about 6 percent from the prior month. Homes sold increased more than 12 percent annually, showing buyers are still active despite some recent cooling.
In the latest July snapshot, homes are taking much longer to sell, with median days on market climbing to 67 days and rising sharply compared with a year ago. Months of supply sits at 4.4, noticeably higher than the statewide level of 2.8 months in Ohio, which points to more balance and options for buyers locally.
Inventory in Jefferson County is relatively steady, with active listings roughly flat from last year, while new listings fell about 15 percent year over year. Only about 22 percent of homes sold above list price, but that share has grown from last year and the average sale-to-list ratio has inched up, indicating sellers can still achieve solid pricing when a home is well positioned. Compared with the higher statewide median sale price, Jefferson County offers a more affordable entry point for buyers.
