Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Lackawanna County is tilted toward sellers right now, with the market gauge reading a seller's market at 34. Inventory has expanded to about 3.2 months of supply, much higher than a year ago, yet still slightly tighter than the Pennsylvania average of 3.1 months. Homes are also moving quickly, with a median of just 17 days on market.
Prices have pushed higher over the past year, with the typical home value up more than 20 percent while the median list price is slightly below last year. At the same time, the share of homes selling above list has climbed to nearly two out of five sales, and the average sale-to-list ratio is just under 100 percent.
Activity is mixed beneath the surface. Active listings are up solidly year over year, and new listings have inched higher, yet closed sales are down while pending contracts have increased. This combination suggests more choices but also steady demand, as buyers move quickly on well-priced homes. In a market where conditions favor sellers but opportunities still exist for well-prepared buyers, Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who knows how to navigate these trends.

“It was a pleasure working with Dave! Very knowledgeable and quick to respond! Very easy to work and knew a great deal of what homes were worth. Helped me find exactly what I was looking for!”

“I am extremely grateful to April Costanzo for all the help and support she provided during my home purchase. Buying a mountain house is a tough decision, and having someone who was consistently responsive, knowledgeable, and patient made a tremendous difference. My purchase had its share of twists and turns, and I had many questions along the way. April never hesitated to jump in, find answers, coordinate with the different parties involved, and help us understand what needed to happen next. Her willingness to stay involved and work through the challenges with me really stood out. What I appreciated most was her genuine commitment to my buying experience. She didn't just help me with the transaction but she was a trusted resource whenever I needed guidance. Thank you, April Costanzo, for your dedication, professionalism, and hard work. I would work with you again anytime and recommend you to anyone looking for a realtor who is dependable, attentive, and truly willing to go above and beyond for their clients.”
RE/MAX Crossroads
“As a real estate agent myself, I needed a trusted out-of-state Realtor to represent me in the sale of one of my own properties—and I couldn’t have chosen anyone better than Deanna Mazzotta. Deanna went above and beyond throughout the entire transaction. She worked tirelessly to secure the highest possible price for my home and was even willing to reduce her commission to help make the deal work. However, I refused because she deserved every penny for the time, dedication, and hard work she invested in getting the property successfully closed. Beyond being an outstanding Realtor, Deanna is honest, professional, responsive, and genuinely cares about her clients. We also formed a wonderful friendship through the process. As fellow Keller Williams agents working in different states, I look forward to referring business to Deanna and hopefully working together again. I highly recommend Deanna to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and dedicated real estate professional who will always go the extra mile!”

Keep up the great work!!!”
Berkshire Hathaway Niki Santelli- Wolff
“Absolutely rock star agent. There is no one better. Seriously. You want your house sold? Call Jessica Sheppard. From initial listing to open houses to closing, she did it all. I was just along for the ride. The house was sold in just a few weeks.”
Berkshire Hathaway Pocono Real Estate
“Jeff was absolutely incredible throughout the entire home-buying process. As a first-time homeowner, I had a lot of questions and stress, but Jeff made everything smooth, clear, and manageable from start to finish. He was always professional, honest, patient, and genuinely cared about helping me find the right home — not just closing a deal. Communication was excellent, and he was always there whenever I needed advice or help. You can tell he truly cares about his clients and puts his heart into what he does. Thanks to Jeff, I officially became a homeowner, and I couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. If you want someone trustworthy, knowledgeable, and dedicated, Jeff is the guy. Thank you again, Jeff — I truly appreciate everything you did for me!”

“Corey helped me buy my first home and I can not recommend him highly enough. He is extremely knowledgable on the local market, and helped me make a good purchase at a very good price. He guided me through the whole process, and kept me updated the whole way through. 10/10 realtor, I will use his services again if I am in the market in the future!”
Century 21 Prosperity
“I couldn't recommend Brianna more!! We were in search of a house while being overseas and her knowledge of the area and ability to adapt to our unique situation was absolutely invaluable. With the time zone differences and complicated communication processes we wanted to use to avoid international fee's she was very understanding and accommodating. We relied especially on her expertise and were not disappointed. I would and will recommend her to any and all looking to buy or sell a house.”
Coldwell Banker Real Estate
“If you are looking for a real estate agent who combines professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine care for her clients, I highly recommend Dwana Woodley. From the beginning of the home-buying process, Dwana demonstrated exceptional attention to detail, ensuring every step was handled thoroughly and accurately. She remained proactive in identifying potential concerns, explaining options clearly, and keeping everything moving forward efficiently. Her negotiation skills played a critical role in putting me in the best position possible to purchase a home. Dwana consistently advocated on my behalf, balancing strategy with transparency while navigating discussions with the seller’s agent and coordinating closely with the loan servicer. Her ability to keep all parties aligned helped avoid delays and ensured progress throughout the process. What stood out most was her constant communication. I was never left wondering about the status of my purchase because Dwana provided timely updates,”
Century 21 Keim - E. Stroudsburg
“Michelle is amazing at what she does. She is very attentive to her clients. Very respectful, knowledgeable, and caring also. I would definitely recommend her and Iron Valley to anyone looking to buy or sell.”

“Brian went above and beyond as a realtor. Always communicative and easy to reach. Excellent input and expertise. Third house purchase with Brian and he never disappoints!”
Century 21 Keim
“As a fourth time home buyer having Karen Rice as our realtor was more than a pleasure. She was always there for us being in person or on the phone setting up appointments to visit homes. My girlfriend and I were very comfortable with Karen from the very first time we met her. By far, purchasing a home that Karen took us to see was the best experience you can ask. She is way more than a realtor. We also consider Karen a close friend. She not only made our purchase of a vacation home in the Pocono's very easy. She has always been there for us answering questions after the closing was completed. We consider her awesome, and if we ever need to buy or sell a home would not hesitate to have her on our team again. Thank you, Karen, for making buying a home stress free and an enjoyable experience. We highly recommend having Karen on your team if you need help buying or selling a home.”
Keller Williams Real Estate
“My family and I had an excellent experience working with Demi, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. As a local agent in Coopersburg, her extensive knowledge of the neighborhood, school district, and local ordinances truly set her apart. She was always prepared, responsive, and willing to explain every detail so we felt confident throughout the process. Demi was especially paramount during the contract negotiation stages, where she advocated strongly on my behalf and made sure I was well represented every step of the way. Her attention to detail and commitment to my family made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and enjoyable. If you need a home in the Lehigh Valley, look for further, Demi will save the day!”

“Working with Theresa was a pleasure. She was extremely helpful, professional, and responsive. Always looking out for my best interests. Whether it was showings, contract negotiations or anything at all, Theresa was always ready to happily help out.”
Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices
“Working with Linda was amazing. She kept the process moving and had plenty of contacts to keep the process moving effortless. She was easy to contact and very responsive. Not sure if she ever stops working. Text message, calls and emails communication was great. Night, weekends. Never stops. Her knowledge of the local market, neighborhoods and market value was spot on.”
