Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Jefferson County real estate market. *
May 2026
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026).
Jefferson County is currently tilted toward sellers, with the market gauge indicating a seller’s market and only 2.8 months of supply compared with 3.6 months statewide. Homes are typically valued around $417,747, well above the West Virginia median of $266,553, showing this area operates at a higher price point than the state overall.
Driving this seller-leaning environment, inventory has grown to 632 active listings, up sharply over the past year, while homes sold jumped nearly a quarter year over year. Demand is evident in the 35.75% annual rise in pending sales and a sale-to-list price ratio near 100%, even as the share sold above list has held close to last year’s level.
Price and pace dynamics highlight a market where buyers have more options but still face strong competition for desirable homes. Median days on market have lengthened to 48 compared with a year ago, yet about 42% of listings still go off the market within two weeks, underscoring how quickly well-priced homes move. In this kind of mixed environment, Agent Pronto can connect both buyers and sellers with an agent who understands local trends and can help them navigate each step with confidence.

“Melissa was absolutely amazing to work with! She was always available when we had questions and was very knowledgeable! We could not have asked for a better realtor to sell our home and would not hesitate to work with her again!”
“Justin is the agent you need. This is my second time with him and he's just getting better. The quality and value and experience he has is unmatched. You need somebody that is going to fight for you, somebody that leaves no stone unturned and can give you peace of mind. We had several obstacles to overcome and he held my hand the whole time. He knows how to strategize, think on his feet, and he'll literally predict the entire process as you watch it play out in real time. He knows everybody in the business, but not just in his field. He has a "rolodex" of the best service providers (ie Handyman, Loan officers, Cleaning, landscaping, contractors, etc) who I've become close with all of them and use them still. Our challenges occured during the gov't shutdown. He stayed the course while the odds were against us. I have been referring clients to him for 15 years now. I trust him and he delivers and he cares. He not only earns his commish, he puts it to work FOR YOU. That's VALUE MY FRIENDS”
“Excellent”
“We cannot recommend Sebastiano highly enough! Moving from South Carolina to San Antonio, Texas, and purchasing a home remotely could have been an incredibly stressful experience, but Sebastiano made the entire process seamless from start to finish. From detailed video walkthroughs and countless questions to navigating multiple offers, he was methodical, incredibly resourceful, and always one step ahead. He took the time to truly understand what we were looking for and ultimately helped us find the perfect home in the well-established community and location we had hoped for. Perhaps most impressive, we were able to close virtually before even arriving in San Antonio—a testament to Sebastiano's professionalism, organization, and dedication to his clients. Throughout the entire process, we felt informed, supported, and genuinely cared for. If you're looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, responsive, trustworthy, and willing to go above and beyond, look no further than Sebastiano!”
“Jonathan was a treasure! He had to deal with a couple of bull-headed first-time buyers, and he did so very well, with the utmost knowledge, patience, service and understanding. I cannot recommend him highly enough!”
“It was a great pleasure having Charlea as our real estate agent for buying our first home! Charlea helped us every step of the way and made sure we were well informed during the entire process. Given all the challenges that came up during the process she did far more than we could ever ask for and really sticks up for her clients!!! If you're looking for a real estate agent who's knowledge, personable, professional, and does everything she can for her clients then Charlea is who you need to help buy or sell your next home!”
“As first-time homebuyers, working with Bill was a great experience overall. He made the process easy to navigate and was always approachable and helpful. We did run into a deadline missed on his part that wasn't in our favor, but fortunately that didn’t have a significant impact on the outcome. Despite those minor issues, we were happy with our experience and would recommend Bill to others, including our father for his next home purchase.”
“Gladys Blum provided excellent advice and service on the sale of our house. Gladys prepared us for the sale with various resources she provided and research done on the particular type and location of our home. The presentation of our home on the internet and other media was first rate along with researching and setting an ideal price. We had an offer within 5 days and closed 30 days later. We appreciate Gladys' integrity, experience, knowledge and guidance (available at any time), which made the sale of our house stress-free and rewarding. We heartily reccomend Gladys to all.”
“What we love about Nicole Clark is that we don't have to worry about a thing. We continuously do business with because we can trust that she has our best interests in mind. She hits it out of the park each and every time. We wouldn't consider going anywhere else or with anyone else. Century 21 Jack Ruddy Real Estate and Nicole Clark are our go to partners in real estate. Until next time, Thank you!!”
“Tracy offered to list our property at a decent price while other realtors refused or would not even respond back.”
“We had said for years that if we were ever to sell our house in Hobey Harbour we would get Peter to sell it for us because everything he listed seemed to sell. Peter exceeded our expectations with his honesty, professionalism and knowledge of the real estate market. We have already recommended Peter to a friend who is thinking of selling.”
“Coming from a marketing backgound. Jack Ma's a methodical and analytical approach resonnated with me from the start. You may get lucky with one sale. But in the long run, a comprehensive plan yields more consistant results. I spoke with 2 other realtors before deciding to list with Jack Ma. The other realtors were nice enough and seemed familiar with my locality, but didn't present a thorough marketing plan. Ultimatly, that's what swayed me and Jack delivered! Highly recommended!”
“Great to work with”
“I love how easy it is to communicate with Lisa. If she's not one step ahead of me asking a question and she having the answer then she responds quickly when I leave a message. She understands my needs as a buyer and seller which is why I've worked with her several times. I highly recommend Lisa Ball!”
“Fantastic. Had my interests in mind through the entire process.”
“Professional, responsive , very good local knowledg, walked me through every element of the sale.”
“Working with Gabby was a fantastic experience from start to finish. She was incredibly responsive, attentive, and always available to answer questions and provide guidance throughout the sale of my home. Her professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail made what could have been a stressful process feel much more manageable. I always felt informed and supported, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about achieving the best outcome. I would happily work with Gabby again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, dedicated, and dependable real estate professional.”
“Sharyn is our amazing family realtor. She helped my son and daughter-in-law with selling one house and purchase two homes. Sharyn worked deligently and non-stop to help me sell my house of 26 years and purchase another house that suited my needs due to my age. Sharyn was quick in responding to all 100 of my email questions. She had the foresight to stage and photograph my house which resulted in a quick sale. She was able to get me into the house I wanted and worked her magic to coordinate the sale and move of both properties. There were times I was frustred with the demands and the numerous paper work entailed, but Sharyn was always there to guide me along with her upbeat personility. Thank you Sharyn for keeping me sane and all your help to get me into my new house.”
“Paula had a very calming, professional presence to her. Paula was on-time, knowledgeable, brought up important points, suggestions and realistic timelines. Home looking is exciting and stressful and a good Agent in my opinion, reels you in a little towards reality. Pumping the brakes. Paula's communication was consistent and accurate and she was there when I needed her. Certainly made the process easier for me and I am happy to have worked with her.”
“Kelly, Thank you so much for all of your help! You made purchasing my first home very easy. I really appreciate how well you explained each step and process I always knew what to expect. Your knowledge on what I needed to look for in homes to fit my FHA loan was so helpful!! Thank so much I really enjoyed working with you”
