Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Northgate real estate market, updated for March 2026. *
Year over year, typical home values in Northgate have edged down by 4.7 percent, landing around $390,000 compared with higher values in Salem at about $425,000. Pending sales have climbed roughly 35.71 percent over the same period even as new listings dropped about 26.32 percent, signaling buyers are acting quickly on limited options.
In February 2026, homes were listed around a median price of $392,400, and they spent a median of 66 days on the market, up 48.31 percent from last year but slightly faster than the prior month. Inventory was tight with only 15 homes available and 14 new listings, while about 41 percent of recent sales closed above the asking price and the average sale-to-list ratio hovered near 0.98.
Looking ahead to March 2026, typical home values are projected to rise to about $397,500, with the median list price nudging up to roughly $396,150 as inventory is expected to dip to around 12 homes. With a seller’s market gauge of 8 and Northgate values still below Salem’s projected $424,500, conditions lean toward strong demand and relatively limited supply. In this kind of environment, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto helping them find an agent who knows how to navigate Northgate’s trends.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
