Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Union County real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Union County is seeing relatively lean inventory, with 39 homes on the market and 17 new listings in February 2026. Pending sales reached 22, indicating buyers are still writing contracts even as choices tighten. Months of supply sits at 3.3, which aligns with a seller’s market reading on the local gauge.
Prices are responding to this setup with notable strength. The typical home value stands around $454,000, far above the South Dakota figure of about $327,100, and is projected to rise toward $571,300 next month while the projected median list price edges up to roughly $530,525.
Homes are taking some time to move, spending a median of 73 days on the market, and about 25.64% of sellers adjusted their price before finding a buyer. Only 16.67% of recent sales closed above list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio is just under full asking at 0.97, showing buyers still have some room to negotiate even in a seller-leaning environment. Inventory has fallen about 15.22% month over month and 25% year over year, while pending sales have inched up 4.76%, underscoring the tension between limited supply and steady demand. With conditions shifting quickly for both buyers and sellers, Agent Pronto can connect you with an experienced local agent who understands how to navigate this Union County market.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.
Union County offers residents a welcoming community, excellent schools, abundant outdoor recreation, and a growing economy that supports families and local businesses.
Union County stands out from nearby Sioux City and Dakota Dunes with a quieter rural pace that still keeps you close to major employers, shopping, and cultural events. Many residents choose communities like Beresford, Alcester, and North Sioux City for their strong local identity, where schools, sports, and civic events bring people together throughout the year.
Along the Missouri and Big Sioux rivers, outdoor time is part of daily life. Families gather at Adams Homestead and Nature Preserve for walking and biking trails, birding, and river views, while golf and community events are a draw at Two Rivers Golf Club. Local history and culture are highlighted through county resources and nearby museums, including the Union County Courthouse in Elk Point and regional institutions like the Sioux City Public Museum.
Strong schools are a key reason families stay, with districts such as Dakota Valley School District and Alcester-Hudson School District offering close-knit learning environments and active extracurricular programs.
Whether you already live in Union County or are relocating for work or lifestyle, planning your move is crucial. Market conditions can shift quickly along the Sioux City corridor, so connecting early with the right local expert through Agent Pronto helps both buyers and sellers prepare, price, and time their decisions with confidence.

“Wade was excellent to work with. We were moving back to the states from overseas and he was extra accomodating to the time zone difference. We had complete trust and confidence in Wade's abilities and recommendation. Once we picked a house to put an offer in on, he was aggressive to ensure our offer was best postured. Due to his diligence and expertise, we are now proud owners of the perfect house for our family.”

“We’ve worked with Chris Smith twice now (first as buyers and most recently as sellers), and we couldn't ask for a better partner. He is the definition of patient; a year ago, he stuck by us as we toured over 50 homes to find the perfect fit, never once making us feel rushed. He’s a fantastic communicator and a genuinely good person who makes a stressful process feel easy. If you want someone who is level-headed and truly has your back, Chris is your guy.”
“I hired Denise to sell my parents' home in Fairfax, CA following my father's passing away. Since I live abroad and travel frequently, I needed an agent who could design and manage a sale process without constant input from me (and my 9-hour time difference!). Denise turned out to be just the person. We were able to empty the home of my parents' effects, make the indoor and outdoor repairs and improvements necessary for the sale, organize the staging, and get the house on the market within a month of my hiring her. I give her top marks and recommend her strongly. Fantastic agent.”
