Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
South Albany currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge signaling a seller’s market. Months of supply is very low at 1.4, well under the broader Albany figure of 3 months. A limited number of active listings, just 63 in this rolling three-month view, reinforces that imbalance between supply and demand.
Prices have eased noticeably over the past year, even with tight inventory. The typical home value over the latest three-month period is about $368,800, down more than 20 percent year over year, while the median list price has fallen at a similar pace. At the same time, homes are spending less time on the market, with median days on market dropping to 63 days, an 18 percent decrease from a year ago.
Sales activity has picked up despite softer prices. Homes sold over the latest three-month window are up more than 25 percent year over year, and pending sales have also seen modest growth, suggesting steady buyer interest. Most homes are closing very close to asking, with an average sale-to-list ratio just above 100 percent, even though the share selling above list has declined from last year. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these cross-currents in South Albany can lean on Agent Pronto to match them with a local agent who understands the numbers and the nuances.

“In my lifetime I have purchased six homes. This transaction has been the most satisfying and least stressful of all. Kevin has gone over and above our past experience when representing my wife and I, we are very happy and pleased with our new home. If we choose to relocate again we will seek out Kevin to help us through another transition.”
“Zac Thompson did an outstanding job selling our Starlight duplex. He sold it quickly, put together excellent marketing, and demonstrated strong local market knowledge throughout the process. His negotiation skills were exceptional, and when a low appraisal threatened to derail the deal, Zac stepped up and helped save it. His expertise, persistence, and ability to navigate challenges made all the difference. We highly recommend Zac to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, hardworking real estate professional who knows how to get deals across the finish line!”
“Greg and Judy were wonderful to work with with.They were professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and truly cared about my needs.”
“Daniel Chin of HomeSmart Realty was professional and easy to work with from start to finish. Communication was consistently prompt whether by phone, email, or text, which made a real difference during the time-sensitive parts of the transaction. He already had a good working relationship with the seller's agent, and that smoothed out negotiations considerably. He stayed on top of every deadline and all the paperwork — nothing fell to us to track. He also gave useful, well-reasoned guidance on comps and on how to approach the inspection, which helped us make decisions with confidence rather than guesswork. I'd recommend Daniel without hesitation!”
“Wade was amazing! He was very kind, considerate and respectful of my personal situation. He is highly intelligent and he is knowledgeable regarding the local housing market. He stayed present and approachable throughout my entire selling and purchasing process. He always went above and beyond with being helpful. He even brought me moving boxes when I was packing for my move! If you’re looking for a realtor to who really wants to understand and work with your personal needs whether buying or selling a home, Wade is your guy and I highly recommend him!”
“After buying and selling several homes over time with different realtors for each, I was so pleasantly surprised by Renee and Russ. My family bought our home together less than one month ago and we knew we were going to be a challenge. Deciding what exactly would work for our multigenerational situation - the dwelling, the amount and type of land needed to meet all of our needs, the location considering employment variances, etc. - seemed to change every other day. This incredible team never lost patience with us, pivoted seamlessly every time we changed direction, and with their help we quickly fine-tuned our search to find the perfect home. Their interpersonal skills with other realtors and with our lenders was impressive and made a huge difference for negotiating price and working through a complex process. Both Russ and Renee were so professional, attentive, consistently kind, and gave us spot-on advice that made all the difference throughout our journey, We have happily landed in the best possible home at the best possible price. These are two knowledgeable and experienced realtors, truly wonderful people, and an unbeatable team to have on your side!”
“Working with Blake was an outstanding experience from start to finish. He was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. Buying and selling a home can be stressful, but Blake made everything feel smooth and manageable. He took the time to answer every question, kept us informed at every step, and always had our best interests in mind. His expertise and attention to detail were clear in every part of the transaction, and we truly felt like we were in great hands. What stood out most was how dedicated and proactive he was—he consistently went above and beyond to make sure everything stayed on track. Because of Blake, the process was far less overwhelming than we expected. We’re incredibly grateful for his help and would absolutely recommend Blake to anyone looking for a trustworthy, hardworking, and knowledgeable realtor. We couldn’t be happier with the experience!”
“Laurice understood what I was looking for and she assisted me in achieving a positive outcome.”
“These guys are great! They have helped my wife and I multiple times find the perfect house for our ever growing family. Buying a house can be a stressful experience but they were patient and relentless in their pursuit of our happiness and really made the process a fun and enjoyable experience. We are now in our forever home and I can honestly say we could not have done it without them--they were able to find something amazing and they made it all possible for us. Thank you guys!”
“Amanda knew the area(s) I was interested in and was proficient with/to my needs. I was PICKY with various elements of my new home search. She continued for almost a year in assisting me. Amanda always had a smile and was helpful when we viewed a home. I highly recommend her to anyone wanting a competent realtor.”
“Chuck was fantastic!!!! He helped me and my wife through all of the "sometimes stressful" process of buying a home. While I never met Chuck in person, he made me feel like he was right there the whole time always getting the info we needed in a very timely way. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wishes to purchase a home. I have bought and sold a few homes in my life, and I feel that I could trust Chuck at all times. ”
“I reached out to Ian when I was getting ready to purchase my first home. He answered EVERY one of my questions, addressed every concern, and eased my nerves through the whole process. He went above and beyond, every day, at nearly any hour. He helped us stay competitive in this market, and got us the right home. Our forever home, and we are forever grateful.”
“Five-star quality realtor, Rick Maurmann. I highly recommend him for real estate in the Salem, Oregon area. First-class service, timely support, great results! ”
“Excellent. Shannon couldn't have been more helpful. She was efficient and professional, was able to receive an acceptable offer within 24hours after listing the home. We sold our home the next day. Best experience my wife and I have ever had throughout the six times we sold homes over the previous 45 years.”
“Pat was great! Followed through with all her promises and facilitated a good buying experience.”
“Naida is amazing. We met by chance and my husband and I liked her from the start. We had looked at houses with two other realtors and one was way too pushy and the other wasn't very responsive. Naida is not pushy and she responds at all hours of the day! If it wasn't for Naida my husband and I would still be living in a small apartment. We live off one income and didn't have much saved. We thought owning a house was just a dream. Naida told us about the USDA program and because she did we were able to get a brand new house no money down, and she even got us 10,000 in closing costs, which allowed us to buy down our interest rate to 2.25! She was even able to negotiate to hace the sellers fix and repair the sewer line going out to the street. I am more than happy with our first house and I WILL be using Naida when we are ready to buy our next house! I highly recommend her. She has a very bright future ahead of her. Not to mention she gives the BEST house warming gifts!”
“Finding Teri was the perfect fit for our home purchase and eventually home sale. Teri is a relaxed and professional realtor who "got it" when we described what we were looking for in our next home. When we did find a great home, she provided quick and professional services for making our offer to purchase. We also sold our home with Teri as listing agent. it was a good move and we are glad of how things worked out so easily. In fact our escrow was one of the shortest to close I can remember at 32 days. Wow! Teri's a great realtor and someone my family knows as a new friend. I highly recommend Teri for your real estate transactions. Happy home hunting!”
