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

Inventory in Clay County has expanded compared with last year, with active listings up nearly 60 percent and sitting at 75 homes in June. Despite that larger pool of options, new listings fell sharply month over month, dropping by more than half. Contract activity cooled as pending sales declined both from May and from a year earlier, while 13 homes closed in June, up from last year.

Pricing is adjusting to these shifting dynamics. The typical home value reached about $304,000 in June, rising more than 36 percent year over year, even as the median list price is down noticeably from both last month and last year. Sellers are also seeing an average sale-to-list ratio under 95 percent, and none of the homes sold in June closed above list price, signaling that buyers have room to negotiate.

Time on market and supply levels further highlight this tilt toward buyers. Homes now take a median of 37 days to go under contract, which is faster than a year ago but still longer than some recent months, and months of supply has grown to just over five, higher than the statewide figure. With Clay County currently classified as a buyer’s market, local conditions can vary a lot by price point and neighborhood, so Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands the latest trends.

“Michele made me feel very comfortable about asking questions. Her answers were always clear. She made sure I understood all the terms and the reasons for them before I needed to sign any thing. She always explained the options that were available. She was very accommodating when setting up appointments to fit my schedule as well as hers. She treated me like a friend rather than a customer, which was a very secure feeling for me. I enjoyed meeting her and feel blessed to have had her as the representative for the transaction. Thank you Michele.”

“I was having trouble finding a house that met my criteria and with having multiple offers rehected or outbid. Mrs. Young fought tooth and claw to finish the job and find me a home in Laramie. She often worked at times that were inconvenient for her, sometimes on weekend family trips and sometimes making short-notice trips all the way out to Laramie for showings. Mrs. Young's hard work and professionalism was a bright spot in an otherwise tough house hunt.”

She made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. Anita was always available to answer questions, explain each step, and make sure we felt confident in every decision. She went above and beyond to make sure everything stayed on track and advocated for us throughout the entire process. We are incredibly grateful for her hard work, patience, and commitment. If you’re looking for a realtor who genuinely cares about their clients and goes the extra mile, we highly recommend her.”

“Working with Paul Hayworth was one of the best decisions I made during the home buying process. From day one, his communication was outstanding. He kept me informed every step of the way, making sure I knew about every update and changes as soon as it happened. Paul went above and beyond to negotiate on my behalf and was able to convince the seller to agree to the deals that were important to me. His knowledge, strategy, and confidence throughout the process were incredible he truly is a mastermind at what he does. He also made sure all of my inspections were scheduled and completed within a week, which helped keep everything moving smoothly and on schedule. His personality made the entire experience enjoyable, and I always felt like I had someone in my corner who genuinely cared about helping me. As a first time homebuyer, I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor. Thank you for making my dream become reality!”
