Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Apr 2026 - Jun 2026).
Year-over-year, Chester’s rolling three-month data shows home values edging up while listing prices have climbed more sharply. Typical home value is up about 8% from last year, and the median list price has jumped by more than 20%, signaling sellers are testing higher price points.
Looking at current conditions, inventory has grown modestly compared with a year ago, but the supply of homes has expanded dramatically. Months of supply is now around 10, far above last year’s level, indicating buyers have many more options even though the market gauge still labels conditions as a seller’s market.
Sales activity has cooled versus last year, with homes sold down by about 40%, while pending sales are only slightly lower, suggesting a slower but still moving pipeline. Homes are taking a bit longer to sell year-over-year, and only about 14% of properties close above list price, with the average sale-to-list ratio just under 95%, so pricing strategy matters on both sides of the table. Agent Pronto can connect buyers and sellers in Chester with an experienced local agent who understands these trends and can guide them through today’s conditions.

“Chanda Green is a remarkable realtor who went above and beyond to help me sell my fathers house in Matthews NC. With me living in Massachusetts, it was very difficult at times, and Chanda did whatever she could to help me so I could be here with my family in MA. I whole heartedly recommend Chanda as she is a class act of what a true professional and intelligent realtor is. Thank you again Chanda for helping me through this whole process. I will be forever grateful for the outstanding service that you provided me.”
“It was an absolute pleasure working with Joshua Kelly and the entire Steadfast team. They were very patient, prompt, attentive, knowledgeable and responsive, especially considering my move entailed an out-of-state component to it. I would absolutely recommend them for future homebuyers.”
“Our agent, Michael Diniz, was professional and extremely knowledgeable. Simply put, he's the best agent we've worked with. Selling our home had its challenges, but his persistence and urgency allowed our home to sell sooner than expected. I've used a few agents in the past, however, Michael is the only agent I'd refer to friends and family.”
“Loved working with Judi, who is very personable and has good attention to detail. I learned so much about this kind of transaction (sale of bare property) from dealing with Judi.”
“I contacted Agent Pronto because I didn't have any personal experience with any realtors so I went to Agent Pronto for guidance. They gave me Tammy Nantz Hoey as my contact and I am so very happy and pleased that they did. Tammy was a great help and motivator. Tammy met contractors at the house so I would not have to miss work and was always positive and uplifting. Tammy kept me informed throughout the entire process of the progress of inspections, closing, etc. I highly recommend Tammy Nantz Hoey. She is the best!!”
“As a first time home buyer, I had no knowledge of the real estate market or the process of home buying. Traci looked out for me every step of the way, ensuring I was getting the best deal and answering any questions. When I found the home I wanted to purchase, Traci was able to get me a few extra incentives from the seller. It's those little things that really matter and I appreciated her attentiveness to seeing that I was happy with my home purchase. ”
“I would recommend Allison to my Friends and family.”
