Where the Valley Stands This Month

Updated Aug 2026

Inventory across our five communities is up 11% from this time last year, and the pace has cooled from the frantic spring — median days on market moved from 21 to 27. That is a healthier market, not a falling one: sale-to-list ratios are still holding above 99%.

The practical read: buyers finally have room to inspect and negotiate, and correctly priced sellers are still getting their number. Overpriced listings, for the first time in three years, are genuinely sitting.

Discuss What This Means for You
Median sale price $1,412,000 +4.1%
Active inventory 202 homes +11.0%
Median days on market 27 days +6 days
Sale-to-list ratio 99.3% −0.4%
Price reductions 31% of listings +9 pts
30-yr fixed (avg.) 6.48% −0.22%
