Francis is currently tilted toward sellers, with the market gauge signaling a strong seller’s market. Only two active listings show that inventory is very limited in this rolling three-month view. With such few options, sellers can often command more attention from motivated buyers.
Prices have cooled notably compared with a year ago, which can open doors for more buyers. The median list price over the latest rolling three-month period is down sharply year over year, falling nearly 37 percent even after a roughly 20 percent jump compared with the prior three-month stretch. Inventory has also declined since last year, with active listings down about one-third year over year. New listings, however, have doubled compared with a year ago, indicating more owners are testing the market even as overall supply stays tight.
Recent history shows how quickly conditions can shift in Francis. In the three months ending June 2026, homes spent a median of just 11 days on the market and half of sales closed above the asking price, a big contrast to the long market times seen in late 2024 and 2023. With prices fluctuating and inventory sparse, it can be difficult for both buyers and sellers to know how to price, time, and negotiate a move, and Agent Pronto can connect them with a local agent who understands these trends.
