Lackawanna County real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Lackawanna County real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Lackawanna County currently leans toward sellers, with a market gauge of 17 indicating a seller's market. Homes spend a typical 35 days on the market, which is quicker than a year ago despite still allowing some time for decisions. Tight conditions are reinforced by just 2.5 months of supply, giving sellers more leverage than buyers.
Prices have climbed over the past year, with the typical home value up 13.64 percent to about $250,000. At the same time, the median list price sits near $249,900, and roughly 22.73 percent of recent sales closed above list price, showing that buyers still bid aggressively on desirable homes. Around 30.95 percent of listings have had a price drop, signaling that some sellers are adjusting expectations as buyers watch value carefully.
Inventory patterns help explain the current balance, with 336 homes on the market in March and a 5.0 percent rise from the prior month but a 13.18 percent decline from last year. New listings held steady year over year at 220, while pending sales climbed 8.43 percent, suggesting demand is outpacing the flow of fresh options. Compared with Pennsylvania’s typical home value of about $309,500, Lackawanna County offers relatively lower prices, even as values have grown faster than the statewide 1.21 percent gain. Whether you are a buyer navigating low inventory or a seller weighing pricing strategy, Agent Pronto can connect you with an experienced local agent to guide your next move.
