Information and statistics on the latest trends in the New Tacoma real estate market, updated for May 2026. *
Over the past year, typical home values in New Tacoma have risen 4.43 percent, reaching about $448,000 in March 2026. Median days on market have doubled over the year, up 100 percent to 72 days, signaling that homes are taking longer to sell than last spring. At the same time, inventory is down 51.72 percent year over year, showing far fewer homes available than a year ago.
In the latest month, the median list price stands around $455,000, up 5.2 percent from the month before. New Tacoma’s values trail the broader Tacoma city typical home value of about $485,000, even though the citywide year-over-year gain of 1.46 percent is lower than this neighborhood’s increase.
March brought 28 active listings and 32 new listings, but pending sales slipped 10 percent compared with last year to 27, hinting at slightly softer demand. Homes are still selling close to asking, with an average sale-to-list ratio near 0.976 and about 11 percent of properties closing above list price, while the market gauge reading of 10 places the area firmly in a seller’s market. Next month, typical values are projected to hold around $448,000, with the median list price expected to edge up to about $466,250 and inventory to 29. Buyers and sellers in New Tacoma can both benefit from these detailed trends, and Agent Pronto can help them find an agent who understands this market.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.

“My daughter and I enlisted Lindsay Jackman due to a strong local referral. Throughout the process of preparing the house for sale, strategizing, listing, and conversations with potential buyers; Lindsay was on it!! She handled every phase of the sale perfectly! We are very happy and satisfied with the outcome of the sale, and with our opportunity to work with a true professional in the Tacoma/Seattle area. I couldn't recommend Lindsay more highly! Robert Atton”
“Tanner was exactly what anyone should look for in an Agent. Timely, responsive, knowledgeable and most importantly honest. He will never guide homebuyers in the wrong direction. He cares about his clients, and his actions always show it. 10/10 would recommend Tanner to anyone and everyone”
“We just celebrated our first month since closing on our condo in Point Ruston, WA. Nikki was instrumental and amazing to work with throughout the entire purchase process - and somehow made the whole experience smooth and seamless. She was quick to respond to our many emails/texts and always answered our calls. Additionally, she made it a priority to give us frequent updates while working through the underwriting process and really worked hard to get us answers quickly to the many questions we had as they came up. I highly recommend Nikki for anyone wanting to work with a realtor who is professional, clearly cares about representing her clients, and will go above and beyond to help them through the entire home buying process.”
“Kristen Johnson was beyond knowledgable concerning the sale of my property. Always available and easy to communicate with. Always willing to assist with anything that came up during the process. I would strongly recommend her to any friends looking to buy or sell a property in our areas. And ifthe need arises she would be the first one I would call.”
“Going into first time home buying you are invetiably going to hear from others who have had poor experiences, felt swindled, or never had a full grasp on the process. I of course had my reservations and weariness going into everything. Jim turned all of those things around within a matter of a few meetings/viewings. What I appreciated most is that he allowed me to set the tone of the process. I was trying to see as many places as I could as quick as possibly outside of working full time. I was in somewhat of a time crunch with a lease coming up soon. He was always available and was never pushy or felt false. Another thing I really appreciated was that he was also available after everything was said and done. I still had some questions about a handful of things and he would call me right away to provide advice. Highly recommend regardless of your stage in the process or timeline.”
“As first-time home buyers, Andrey made sure we were well taken care of. He was very informative and communicative through every step of the way and continues to be. We will definitely use Andrey in our journeys to come! Highly recommend.”
“Tanya was exceedingly helpful and kind and patient. She was very efficient, and on time. She was able to help me with everything I asked.”
“Mark was an excellent realtor! Professional, courteous and hands on! He went above and beyond to sell my house!!”
“Mrs. Coutu was very thorough and knowledgeable on the latest real estate market...fought hard and was able to get the best deal for everyone involved on both sides of the home sale. I would definitely use or recommend Lara again in the future for realtor needs in the Pacific Northwest. Thank you for such a professional yet personal touch to the selling of my home. Her work was excellent with class, very refreshing and all satisfied here. Keep up the great work! ”
“Constantly kept me informed, answered questions, made helpful recommendations, assisted me with problems when I was not able to be there, and made adjustments to help me close. Highly recommend Agent Pronto and Rebecca Del Pozo! ”
