Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Washington County real estate market. *
August 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 (Aug 2026).
Inventory and contract activity in Washington County showed mixed signals in August 2026. Active listings inched up slightly from the prior month, while new listings dipped but were still higher than a year ago, indicating more fresh options than last summer. Pending sales rose month over month and were modestly higher year over year, even as closed sales fell sharply compared with both July and last August.
Pricing is adjusting to these shifting dynamics. The typical home value was up compared with a year earlier, yet it declined notably from July, and the median list price followed a similar month-over-month drop despite a yearly increase. Homes were selling faster, with median days on market improving significantly from the prior month and slightly from last year, and more than half of recent sales closed above list price, a sizeable jump over the past year.
Supply conditions have loosened compared with last summer, as months of supply more than doubled year over year, but Washington County is still characterized as a seller’s market, with inventory tighter than the Wisconsin state average. Even with this, the average sale-to-list ratio hovered just above 100 percent, suggesting buyers still face limited room for negotiation while sellers can often achieve close to asking prices. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these evolving conditions can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a Washington County real estate agent well-suited to their needs.
Washington County offers residents a high quality of life with safe, welcoming communities, strong schools, abundant outdoor recreation, and a collaborative, service‑oriented culture.
Washington County offers a distinct balance of small‑town character and rural landscape that feels different from nearby Milwaukee suburbs. Communities like West Bend and Hartford blend historic main streets with modern conveniences, while Germantown and Jackson provide easy commuting access and established neighborhoods.

Outdoor options are a major draw. Residents enjoy the Eisenbahn State Trail for biking and snowmobiling, scenic views at Pike Lake Unit of Kettle Moraine State Forest, and family time at Regner Park in West Bend. Cultural life is anchored by venues like the Museum of Wisconsin Art and community events in downtown Hartford and West Bend. Families also pay close attention to local schools such as Hartford Union High School and West Bend School District.
Housing options range from historic homes near walkable downtowns to newer subdivisions and country properties with acreage. With demand influenced by regional job centers and ongoing development, timing your move and understanding neighborhood trends is essential. Whether you are planning to relocate within the county or considering a move from nearby Milwaukee County, the right local agent can help you prepare, price, and position your purchase or sale.

“I knew Krag was going to be our agent within the first few minutes of meeting him. He clearly knows the business like the back of his hand and provided exceptional guidance through the entire process. We haven't bought/sold many houses so having someone with Krag's knowledge and experience was imporant to us. He's an absolute professional and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to represent anyone who's in the market to buy/sell!”
“Libby was so patient with me through the whole process. I changed locations and type of house I was looking amongst other things. It never seemed to bother her. She was very honest with me through every house we looked through. I could really tell she cared about me finding a house that felt right for me. She helped me get to the bottom of a question I had about the house I finally did purchase over a year later. I would highly recommend Libby to anyone looking to buy a home! She made me feel very taken care of and supported through the whole process.”
“We worked with Matt and Candie on real estate transactions in Cape Coral, FL, Ft. Myers, FL and Madison, WI. With all 4 transactions, their knowledge of the market and neighborhoods was excellent. They have great negotiation skills when it came to purchasing and selling our homes. They were also very helpful in all the aspects of selling and buying a new home. Whether you needed help finding a service provider to get something repaired, coordinating with getting utilities switched over, or getting your modem out of the home before closing, Matt & Candie were always there. They are really great partners to have when selling or buying your home!”

“I met Jim Foytik by chance when I responded to a Realtor.com ad for house I was interested in. he met us at the house and handled the offer which was accepted. In order for Jim to have done this at all, he needed to know the listing realtor to get an extension on the offer deadline. He quickly and precisely put together the offer and his inut pursuaded me to chnage my mind on what I was gong to do. His influence made the difference because our offer was the offer that was accepted. Throughout the process, I would text him questions and would get prompt replies. the take-away for me in this experince is the reator you work with can make all the difference in the world. When buying a home, It is a competitive marketplace and winning is never an accident accident, or by luck and Jim Foytik is a winner. I highly recommend Jim Foytik to anyone selling their home or looking to buy a home.”
