Year over year, Porter’s rolling three-month data shows home values edging up while listing prices rise more noticeably. The typical home value is up about 2 percent from last year, and the median list price has grown around 6 percent. Closed sales have increased roughly 3 percent, even as new listings dipped slightly.
Looking at the latest three-month window through September 2026, inventory and activity are shifting. Active listings are down a bit from a year ago, but months of supply has dropped more sharply over the year, even with a recent jump from earlier this summer. Homes are taking about 69 days to sell, a touch quicker than last year, and only about 7 percent are closing above list price, with an average sale-to-list ratio just under 97 percent.
Conditions over the past several quarters line up with a seller-leaning market gauge reading, yet buyers still see more choices than a couple of years back. Sales volume has strengthened compared with last year’s same period, but fewer new listings and lower pending sales hint at more selective shoppers. With slightly longer timelines than the hottest periods and pricing that has cooled from 2024 highs, strategy matters on both sides of the table.
