Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).

Upper Kensington currently reflects a neutral market, with the local gauge near the midpoint between buyer and seller advantages. Homes are taking a median of 71 days to sell in this rolling three-month window, and about 16% are closing above the list price while the average sale-to-list ratio sits just under 96%.

Prices have climbed notably over the past year, with the typical home value up about 45% even as the median list price has fallen roughly 14%. At the same time, months of supply has jumped to more than 10 months from around 4 months a year ago, signaling that inventory has expanded faster than sales and giving buyers more choices.

Inventory and activity levels show how this balance plays out day to day, as active listings are up more than 45% year over year while homes sold over the same period are down about a quarter. Compared with the broader Philadelphia market, where months of supply is closer to five and prices are higher overall, Upper Kensington offers more relative inventory and lower price points, so both buyers and sellers can benefit from guidance, and Agent Pronto can connect them with an agent who understands these conditions.

“Alyssa was amazing from day one! She has a wonderful personality and got right to work helping and guiding me through the process of selling my home. Selling a house can be stressful, especially when dealing with inspections and making sure all the necessary requirements are met. Alyssa was incredibly patient, supportive, and understanding while I worked on getting everything fixed. As soon as my house was ready to hit the market, she helped me sell it within the very same month it was listed! I truly appreciate all her hard work, guidance, and dedication throughout the process. I highly recommend Alyssa to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, patient, and supportive real estate agent. Thank you, Alyssa, for making this experience a positive one!”

“I am so grateful to have had Cheryl Newton by my side throughout my home-buying journey! From the very beginning to closing, Cheryl was there for me every step of the way. She made what could have been a stressful process feel so much easier because I always knew I had someone I could trust. I closed on my property in just **30 days**, and Cheryl played such an important role in making that happen. She truly knows her stuff, was always available when I needed her, and went above and beyond to make sure everything stayed on track. More than just being an amazing real estate agent, she genuinely cared about me and wanted the best for me. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to guide me through such an important milestone. Cheryl, thank you for your patience, hard work, knowledge, and for making this experience such a positive one. I am truly thankful for you and would recommend you to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!”

“Cody was great. He always gave honest advice as to what was a good idea for us, rather than pushing a sale for himself. He was flexible in helping us find a house we wanted as our own preferences evolved. And when we found a place we loved, he knew all about the process. Very knowledgeable. He also saved us from a potential disaster. Cody recommended a stucco inspection on the home we ended up buying, and I'm glad he did! The stucco needed a lot of work, and Cody was highly responsive during the long negotiation period that ensued. He put in a ton of work! We were able to negotiate price down a lot to account for repairs. And the staff Cody works with was also fantastic!”
