Inventory in Zenith is limited, with just 6 homes for sale in March 2026, yet contract activity stayed close behind at 11 pending sales and 12 new listings. With inventory up 50% from the prior month but still down 25% from a year ago, buyers are seeing only a modest increase in options.
Pricing is adjusting quickly, as the typical home value has dropped to about $417,500, down 22.69% year over year and 33.31% from the prior month. At the same time, sellers are asking more on new listings, with the median list price rising to roughly $514,975, up 33.77% month over month.
Homes are taking about 30 days to go under contract, which is nearly 19% faster than last month but far slower than a year ago, and about 41.67% of recent sales closed above the list price with an average sale-to-list ratio near 0.996. Even with these mixed signals, Zenith is still classified as a Seller's Market, while nearby Des Moines shows a higher typical home value of around $554,500. Looking ahead to April 2026, projections point to a typical home value near $313,250, a median list price around $579,975, and inventory edging up to 7 homes.
