Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Polk County real estate market. *
July 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 (Jul 2026).
Inventory in Polk County has been building, with active listings up month over month and sitting at 265 in July. New listings also rose slightly from June and are up sharply compared to last year, while homes sold climbed about 15 percent over the month and nearly the same year over year, signaling solid contract activity.
Pricing has been adjusting as this inventory and demand flow through the market. The typical home value measured by median sale price is just under $330,000, down a bit from June and slightly lower than a year ago, even as the median list price is up more than 18 percent year over year, suggesting sellers are still testing higher asking prices.
Timing and negotiation dynamics give additional context for Polk County sellers and buyers. The median days on market has shortened noticeably since earlier in the year to about 39 days, months of supply sits at 3.0 in a seller-leaning range, roughly in line with the 3.0 months seen across Wisconsin, and homes are closing at about 97.8 percent of list price with roughly a quarter selling above asking. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these shifting conditions can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with an experienced local agent who understands this market.
