Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Luzerne County real estate market. *
August 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Aug 2026).
Luzerne County is currently tilted toward sellers, with the market gauge indicating a seller’s market and only 2.2 months of supply, well below Pennsylvania’s 3 months. Homes are also priced more affordably than the state overall, with a typical home value around $244,000 compared with roughly $328,000 statewide.
Home values and prices have been edging up, with the typical home value up about 4 percent year over year and the median list price climbing roughly 9 percent. Even with that growth, buyers are active, as homes sold in August jumped more than 18 percent from a year ago and roughly 14 percent from July.
Speed and pricing power help explain the seller-leaning conditions, with half of homes going under contract in just 18 days and about a third selling above list price. At the same time, the sale-to-list ratio near 99 percent shows buyers are still negotiating close to asking, making it important for both buyers and sellers to have strong guidance, and Agent Pronto can connect them with an agent who understands these dynamics.
Luzerne County offers residents a welcoming mix of affordable living, outdoor recreation, robust local culture, and a close-knit community that supports work, education, and everyday growth.
Luzerne County combines small city convenience, historic neighborhoods, and easy regional access along the I‑81 corridor. Residents move fluidly between downtown Wilkes‑Barre, suburban communities like Hanover Township and Kingston, and quieter outlying towns, all within a manageable drive to Scranton and the broader Wyoming Valley region.
Daily life is practical and connected. Families appreciate strong school options such as Wilkes‑Barre Area School District and Dallas School District, plus higher education at Wilkes University and King’s College. Healthcare needs are met by major providers like Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center. Shopping corridors in Wilkes‑Barre Township and local staples like Arena Hub Plaza keep essentials close.
Outdoor recreation is a key part of the lifestyle. Residents enjoy walks along the Wilkes‑Barre Riverfront Parks, hiking and biking at Seven Tubs Recreation Area, and skiing or summer activities at Montage Mountain. Cultural stops like the F.M. Kirby Center and events in Hazleton offer year‑round entertainment.
From understanding flood zones and tax districts to navigating older housing stock and new construction, local insight reduces stress at every stage. Agent Pronto connects buyers and sellers in Luzerne County with real estate agents who know these communities in detail, helping your move or sale stay focused, efficient, and manageable.
