Boring’s rolling three-month data through May 2026 points to softer prices compared with a year ago. The typical home value is down about 5% year over year, and median list prices have slipped a bit as well. At the same time, the number of active listings has dropped by more than 40% from a year earlier, underscoring how limited inventory has become.
Looking at the latest period more closely, the typical home value is about $677,000, while the median list price is slightly lower at roughly $669,000. Homes are spending far longer on the market, with the median days on market reaching 166 days, a sharp jump from the much quicker pace seen last year.
Even with longer marketing times, supply is still tight at only 1.6 months of inventory, which aligns with Boring being classified as a seller’s market. Very few homes are selling above asking price, and the average sale-to-list ratio hovers just under 99%, indicating that buyers often negotiate modest discounts. With only two homes sold and three new listings entering the market in this rolling period, every transaction carries more weight.
