Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Stark County real estate market, updated for May 2026. *
Inventory in Stark County tightened in March 2026, with 535 homes for sale, down about 7% from the prior month and more than 13% lower than last year. Contract activity stayed steady, as 436 new listings fed into 459 pending sales, signaling that demand continues to absorb new supply quickly.
Pricing is responding to this low supply, with the median list price up nearly 7% month over month to about $239,950, even as the typical home value dipped 5.48% year over year to $220,000. Compared with Ohio overall, where the typical home value is around $263,500, Stark County remains more affordable, and projections show only a modest uptick locally to about $220,250 next month.
Homes are still moving at a brisk pace, sitting a median of 33 days on the market, which is almost 30% faster than the previous month despite being higher than a year ago. With just 1.7 months of supply, over 33% of sales closing above list price, and roughly 27% of listings cutting prices, conditions reflect a nuanced seller’s market where well-priced homes attract strong interest. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate this shifting balance in Stark County can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with an experienced local agent who understands their needs.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.

Once we talked through my wife and my preferences Matt was quick to help facilitate showings, gave sound advice on pluses and negatives without rushing our decisions. What set Matt apart in my mind was his meticulous support through the entire buying process once we had made an offer on our new home. Matt talked us through every step, made sure we dotted and I’s and crossed all t’s leading to a smooth buying experience. He even took the additional time after closing to verify with the sellers agent that we were on time for taking possession. I would certainly recommend Matt to anyone looking for a realtor.”
