What Does This Mean?

Fewer Homes Available

At the end of June, there were 368 active residential listings, representing 2.54 months of housing supply. A balanced market typically has between four and six months of inventory, so buyers currently have fewer properties to choose from than they would in a balanced market.

Buyers Continue to Be Active

A total of 145 homes sold during the month, showing that buyers continue to participate in the market. Homes that are well-priced and well-presented are often in the strongest position to attract interest.

Home Values Remain Stable

The average residential sale price reached $384,482, an increase of 3.9% compared to June 2025. Homes sold in an average of 43 days, reflecting a market that continues to move at a steady pace.

If You’re Buying

Preparation is one of the best ways to set yourself up for a successful purchase.

Before beginning your home search, consider obtaining a mortgage pre-approval so you understand your budget and financing options. It’s also important to budget for additional costs, including legal fees, a home inspection, title insurance, moving expenses, and, if applicable, mortgage default insurance.

Knowing your priorities before you begin viewing homes can also make the process more focused and less overwhelming.

If You’re Selling

Preparing your home before it hits the market can make a meaningful difference.

Pricing your home appropriately, presenting it well, and having a thoughtful marketing strategy in place can help you reach qualified buyers and put your property in the best position to succeed.

Every home is unique, and the right approach will depend on your goals, timeline, and current market conditions.

Have Questions?

Real estate is local, and every move is different. While market statistics provide a helpful overview, they don’t tell the whole story.
