Breakdown of February 2026 Market Activity
New Listings
Overall, there was less market activity in January 2026 than there was one year ago. That starts with the number of new listings, which were down from 155 new listings in January 2025 to 128 new listings in January 2026. That marks a decrease of 17.4 percent in new listings in January 2026, compared to one year ago.
Please note that since this data is for January, the monthly and year-to-date data would be identical. The year-to-date data will return in next month's report, when there will be more than one month of data to include.

With fewer homes on the market, the homes that were listed spent fewer days on the market before sale than they did one year ago, on average. Homes spent an average of 50 days on the market before sale in January 2026, compared to 59 days in January 2025. By percentage, that means homes spent an average of 15.4 percent fewer days on the market before sale in January 2026, compared to one year ago.
