Inventory: April listings (786) increased by 0.6% from March and increased 23.4% from one year ago. At the current sales pace, all the active inventory on the market would sell in 4.6 months, up from 4.3 months in March and up from 3.4 months in April 2025.

Pricing: The area’s median sales price in April was $262,500, an increase of 19.2% from one year ago and an increase of 4.0% from March. The differing sample size (number of residential sales of comparative months) can contribute to statistical volatility, including pricing. ACRE recommends consulting with a local real estate professional to discuss pricing, as it will vary from neighborhood to neighborhood.
