Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Mar 2026 - May 2026).
Rochester currently leans toward sellers, with the market gauge signaling a seller’s market and just 3.2 months of supply in this rolling three-month view through May 2026. Typical home values are up sharply, with the median sale price rising about 40% year over year to roughly $512,000, indicating buyers are paying much more than they did a year ago.
Price dynamics and bidding patterns help explain this tilt toward sellers, as about half of recent sales closed above list price and the average sale-to-list ratio is near 99%. Even with that strength, inventory has inched up slightly compared with last year, and active listings are nearly flat year over year, suggesting more choice than in some past periods.
Activity trends show a nuanced picture of demand, with homes sold up roughly 23% from a year earlier while new listings are down about a third and pending sales have fallen more than 40%. Homes are taking longer to sell than last year in this rolling three-month window, with median days on market climbing, yet many still go off-market within two weeks, underscoring how uneven conditions can feel from one listing to the next. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these mixed signals can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who understands Rochester’s shifting numbers and strategies on both sides of the table.
