The latest Columbus & Central Ohio market report is in, and the numbers tell an important story for both buyers and sellers. 📊🏡

While closed sales moderated in April, home values continue to rise and inventory is expanding — giving buyers more options and a little more time to make confident decisions.

Here’s a quick snapshot of the April 2026 market:
▪️ 2,202 closed sales
▪️ Median sales price: $346,500 ⬆️
▪️ Average days on market: 39 days
▪️ Inventory increased to 13.4% ⬆️

What does this mean?

For buyers:
More inventory means more opportunities and less pressure compared to the highly competitive markets we’ve seen in recent years.

For sellers:
Homes are still appreciating in value, but pricing strategically and presenting your home well matters more than ever.

The market is shifting toward balance — and that’s creating opportunities on both sides of the transaction. Whether you’re thinking about buying, selling, investing, or just trying to understand what these changes mean for you, I’m always happy to be a resource. 🤝

Central Ohio's housing market showed resilience in April, with home values climbing and inventory expanding even as overall sales volume moderated. April data from the Columbus & Central Ohio Regional MLS shows 2,202 closed sales, a 13.6% decrease compared to April 2025, though the year-to-date total of 7,617 closings remains within reach of last year's pace, down 4.2% through the first four months of the year.

“April's numbers tell an interesting story. We have more homes on the market and buyers are taking a little more time to decide. That's not a bad thing; it means consumers are being thorough and intentional,” said Columbus REALTORS® President Gloria Alonso Cannon.

Another successful closing in the books! 🏡✨

I’m excited to share that my seller has officially closed on their home at 5161 Forestwood Road in Columbus! This one came together as an off-market opportunity, creating a smooth and efficient experience from start to finish.

Every transaction is unique, and this one is a great example of how the right strategy and preparation can help achieve strong results—even without going live on the market.

A special thank you to Zach Allen with CrossCountry Mortgage for helping support the financial side of this transaction and keeping everything moving forward seamlessly.

Grateful for the trust my clients place in me and honored to help guide them through each step of the process.

If you’ve been thinking about selling and want to explore all of your options (on-market and off-market), I’d love to connect and walk you through what that could look like for you.
