Tenney-Lapham real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Tenney-Lapham real estate market, updated for May 2026. *
Inventory in Tenney-Lapham stayed tight in March 2026, with only 4 homes on the market and 6 new listings. That is still far below last year, with inventory down about 69 percent and new listings down 60 percent year over year. Buyers are acting on what does hit the market, as the 6 pending sales hint at steady contract activity even with limited choices.
Price patterns are telling a more complex story. The typical home value sits around $323,500, down about 48 percent from a year ago and nearly 16 percent from the prior month, while nearby Madison overall is closer to $453,500. Median list prices, however, rose more than 16 percent month over month to about $358,000, and are projected to reach roughly $383,500 in April even as the projected typical value dips toward $292,750. Homes are taking longer to move than in the past, averaging about 41.5 days on market, which is more than 80 percent higher than a year ago.
Despite those mixed signals, conditions still lean toward sellers, with Tenney-Lapham rated a 7 on the local market gauge and an average sale-to-list ratio near 0.96. With few homes for sale and notable shifts in both values and asking prices, buyers and sellers in Tenney-Lapham can benefit from an Agent Pronto–recommended real estate professional who understands how to navigate this market.

Learn more about what Tenney-Lapham has to offer.
Tenney-Lapham offers residents a walkable, diverse community with historic homes, vibrant local eateries, plentiful green spaces, and easy access to parks and neighborhood events that foster connection.
Tenney-Lapham stands out from other near east side neighborhoods in Madison with its rare mix of downtown energy and relaxed lakefront streets. Just north of the Capitol, it offers quicker access to the isthmus than Schenk-Atwood yet feels more residential than the heart of Downtown Madison.
Tree-lined blocks lead to the waterfront at Tenney Park, where residents jog along the Yahara River, skate in winter, and launch kayaks onto Lake Mendota. Locals walk or bike to neighborhood fixtures like Christensen’s Grocery and popular spots along East Johnson Street. The area’s blend of classic houses, modest multi-flats, and contemporary apartments attracts longtime residents, students, and professionals connected to UW–Madison and the nearby Capitol Square.
Community identity runs strong through the Tenney-Lapham Neighborhood Association, which supports local events, traffic calming, and careful infill development. Buyers will find that move-in ready homes and well-kept duplexes can draw multiple offers, especially close to the park or bike paths leading toward Marquette and Capitol East. Sellers benefit from the steady demand for walkable locations near the lakes, bus routes, and bike corridors.
Whether you are planning ahead for a competitive purchase or timing a sale to capture peak interest, working with a Tenney-Lapham–savvy agent is key. Agent Pronto connects both buyers and sellers with professionals who understand how to prepare, price, and negotiate effectively in this sought-after neighborhood.
Trusted by over 500,000 buyers and sellers.
