Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (May 2026 - Jul 2026).
Merrill’s rolling three-month snapshot shows steady activity, with 73 active listings and 43 new listings recently coming to market. Pending sales are up nearly 18% year over year, while homes sold are roughly flat, suggesting more buyers are writing offers even as overall turnover holds steady.
Pricing has moved up decisively over the past year, with the typical home value climbing nearly 30% year over year to about $226,000. At the same time, the median list price has dipped around 8% compared with a year ago, pointing to sellers pricing more cautiously even as sale prices trend higher.
From a timing standpoint, homes are taking about 42 days to go under contract in this rolling three-month view, and months of supply has risen to 3.2, up more than 50% from a year ago. Roughly 39% of recent sales closed above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio is about 101%, underscoring that well-positioned homes can still attract strong offers in this seller-leaning environment. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these mixed signals can use Agent Pronto to connect with a Merrill agent who understands the local numbers and trends.
