Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Mar 2026 - May 2026).
Year-over-year, Lykens shows mixed signals in this rolling three-month view, with typical home values down around 14 percent even as listing prices have climbed roughly 21 percent. At the same time, inventory has expanded significantly, with active listings up about 35 percent compared with a year ago, indicating more options for shoppers.
Looking at demand, homes sold over the period are down about 12 percent year over year, yet pending sales have risen more than 26 percent, suggesting interest that has not fully translated into closed deals. The share of homes selling above list price has slipped to about 17 percent, and the average sale-to-list ratio is just under 97 percent, showing buyers have gained a bit of negotiating room.
In the most recent rolling three-month data ending in May 2026, typical home values sit around $154,000 with a median list price near $144,000. Homes are taking longer to move, with a median of 81 days on market and about 5.8 months of supply, conditions that align with a softer seller’s edge than in prior years even though the market gauge still leans to sellers. Whether you are a buyer trying to read these shifting signals or a seller aiming to price strategically, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local agent who understands the Lykens trends in detail.
