Missouri’s Buy-Side Real Estate Market: Q1 2026 Analysis

Missouri Market Snapshot: Q1 2026

Missouri's single-family market operated deep into seller-favorable territory across the first quarter of 2026. Active inventory opened January at 11,501 homes, held essentially flat in February at 11,475, and rose to 11,571 in March, a 0.6 percent net increase across the quarter. Months of supply moved decisively in the opposite direction. The reading opened at 2.9 months in January, eased to 2.5 in February, and tightened to 2.0 in March. All three months sat at least three months below the 6-month balanced-market benchmark, with the quarter ending four full months under that threshold.

Median sale prices climbed each month of the quarter. The statewide median opened January at $272,800, rose to $276,900 in February, and reached $288,700 in March, a 5.8 percent gain across three months. Days on market traced a similar tightening path. The reading held at 52 days through January and February, then compressed to 43 in March as transaction volume accelerated, a 9-day reduction over the quarter.

Year-over-year context shows a market that opened the quarter looser than the prior year before crossing to slightly tighter readings in February and March. January 2026 inventory of 11,501 homes was 8.5 percent above January 2025, with supply running 0.3 months looser at 2.9 months versus 2.6. February supply edged slightly tighter than the prior year at 2.5 versus 2.6. By March, inventory was 3.3 percent above the prior-year reading of 11,236 homes, while months of supply landed at 2.0, one-tenth of a month below March 2025's 2.1. The median price of $288,700 in March 2026 ran 7.2 percent above March 2025, the most significant year-over-year shift in the quarter.

Missouri's Top 25 Buyer's Agents and Teams: Q1 2026 Rankings

Agent Pronto/CINC has ranked Missouri's top 25 buyer's agents and teams based on total transaction volume in Q1 2026. This proprietary buy-side data reveals both high-volume operators and luxury specialists who dominate Missouri's diverse real estate market.

What the Data Shows

Missouri's top 25 leans heavily toward high-volume operators working at mid-market price points. Six agents and teams operate with median prices below $300,000, eleven sit between $300,000 and $500,000, four fall between $500,000 and $1 million, and four carry medians at or above $1 million. Mark & Neil Gellman lead the rankings with 46 closings at a $343,250 median, generating $19.8 million in total volume, the highest in the state. Justin M Taylor ranks fourth with 42 closings at a $199,950 median for $13.9 million. Kelly & Linda Boehmer, Elizabeth A Fendler, and Angela M Kittner-Brosseau each reach the rankings with 31 to 33 closings.

A different model appears prominently in the rankings. Megan Rowe ranks second overall with just eight closings at a $1,131,250 median, generating $14.7 million in total volume from a fraction of the transaction count of the volume leaders. Troy W Robertson ranks eighteenth with five closings at a $1,695,000 median for $6.7 million, the highest median in the top 25. Amanda Alejandro and Melissa Anderson also reach the rankings through small numbers of high-value transactions at medians of $1.5 million and $1.2 million. These four luxury specialists reflect the dollar-volume ranking bias toward luxury work.

The breadth of Missouri's top 25 is meaningful on both axes. Median prices range from $199,950 to $1,695,000, and closing counts span from four to 46. Because the rankings are ordered by total sold dollar volume, agents and teams in Missouri reach the list through three distinct paths: high transaction counts at price points near or just above the statewide median of $288,700, moderate counts at mid-market upper prices between $500,000 and $1 million, or single-digit counts at substantially higher per-transaction values above $1 million. The volume path dominates the rankings, with eleven agents and teams closing at least twenty transactions in the quarter.

Conclusion

Missouri's first quarter of 2026 saw supply tighten from 2.9 months to 2.0, inventory rise 0.6 percent, and the median sale price climb 5.8 percent within the quarter to $288,700. The quarter opened looser than Q1 2025 then crossed to slightly tighter readings in February and March, while the median price ran 7.2 percent above March 2025 year-over-year. Within this environment, the top 25 buyer's agents and teams closed 473 transactions across median prices ranging from $199,950 to $1,695,000. The list spans high-volume operators, mid-market specialists, and four luxury producers including a luxury specialist who ranks second overall.
