Inventory in Rock County is relatively lean, with about 701 active listings in September and just 2.5 months of supply, well below the state’s 3 months. Contract activity has cooled from earlier in the year, as new listings dropped nearly a quarter month over month and pending sales fell at a similar pace. Even with fewer homes coming to market and fewer new contracts, closed sales were steady compared with August and are running more than 15 percent higher than a year ago.
Prices show gradual upward pressure rather than sharp swings. The typical home value reached about $306,800 in September, up nearly 5 percent from last year, while the median list price is almost 8 percent higher year over year despite a pullback from August. Homes are taking around 44 days to sell on median, a slight month-over-month increase but similar to last year, suggesting buyers still have to move deliberately but not in a rush.
Seller leverage remains noticeable, though it has eased from midsummer peaks. Roughly 37 percent of recent sales closed above the list price and the average sale-to-list ratio is just under 100 percent, showing that well-priced homes are still attracting solid offers. With conditions that reward careful pricing for sellers and patient strategy for buyers, Agent Pronto can connect both sides with a local Rock County agent who understands these trends and can guide each move.
