Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Monroe 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).
Monroe County currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge at 34 and inventory relatively tight. Months of supply is at 2.8, just under the statewide 2.9 months, signaling limited options for buyers. A typical home value of about $232,000 also sits well below the Wisconsin median of roughly $351,000, keeping local prices more affordable than the state overall.
Price trends have softened over the past year, even as activity shows pockets of strength. The typical home value is down more than 20 percent year over year, and the median list price is also lower than a year ago, even though it rose more than 6 percent from last month. At the same time, homes sold increased by about 11 percent compared with last year and jumped more than 27 percent from the prior month, pointing to stronger recent demand.
Supply and speed tell an interesting story for both sides of the table. New listings are down sharply from a year ago, contributing to fewer choices, but a median of 40 days on market and nearly 47 percent of homes going off market within two weeks show that well‑priced properties still move quickly. Just over 30 percent of sales close above list price and the average sale‑to‑list ratio hovers around 97 percent, suggesting sellers still hold some pricing power even as conditions cool. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these mixed signals can turn to Agent Pronto to match with a local Monroe County agent who understands the current data.
Monroe County offers residents a welcoming, family‑friendly community with strong local services, abundant outdoor recreation, and diverse opportunities for work, education, and small‑business growth.
Monroe County feels distinct from nearby La Crosse and Jackson County with its blend of quiet farming communities, small cities, and major transportation corridors. The area’s identity is shaped by rolling coulees, dairy farms, and deep military ties centered on Fort McCoy, creating a community that feels both rooted and connected.
Tomah and Sparta anchor the county, each with its own character. Tomah’s location at the crossroads of I‑90 and I‑94 makes it a regional hub, supported by amenities like Tomah Memorial Hospital and family friendly recreation at Lake Tomah. Sparta calls itself the Bicycling Capital of America, with direct access to the Elroy‑Sparta State Trail and nearby Fort McCoy. Smaller communities such as Norwalk and Cashton add to the county’s close knit feel and offer more rural housing options.
Residents value year‑round outdoor recreation at Wildcat Mountain State Park, local schools like the Tomah Area School District, and community gathering spots from local diners to farm markets. Housing ranges from historic homes near Sparta’s downtown to newer subdivisions on the edge of Tomah, plus country properties with acreage across Monroe County.
With interest in the area growing, timing and preparation are increasingly important. Whether you are planning to buy in the coming months or considering listing your home, Agent Pronto connects you with a Monroe County real estate professional who understands the local market and can help you move at the right moment.
