June 2026 Market Overview
June 2026 delivered a notable bright spot: 66 closed sales, the strongest month of the year and up 34.7% from June 2025’s 49 closings. That momentum was supported by 283 active listings, the highest June inventory count in four or more years, up 30.4% year-over-year. Months of supply eased from May’s 5.0 to 4.3, reflecting the surge in closings relative to available homes.
Pricing continues to soften at the mid-range: the median closed price of $421,300 is down 2.0% from a year ago and modestly below the last several months of 2026. The average closed price of $499,818 remains well above long-term norms, and the 2026 YTD average of $487,825 continues to track above the full-year 2024 average. Pending sales dipped 5.7% year-over-year — a signal worth watching as a leading indicator for July.
The market continues to reward precision: correctly priced homes are closing at 97.2% of list price, while overpriced listings are sitting.
