Market insights for March 2026
📈 Spring Inventory Building
Active listings crossed 1,000 for the first time in 2026, reaching 1,006 in March — up 65 from February. While this seasonal build is expected, inventory remains well below the September 2025 peak of 1,138, keeping the market balanced without oversupply pressure on sellers heading into peak spring.
💲 Sales Momentum Continues
March closed 292 homes, up 11.5% from February's 262 and up 7.7% year-over-year from March 2025's 271. This is the strongest sales month of 2026 so far, confirming that spring demand is firmly in motion and tracking ahead of last year's pace.
📊 Price Consolidation After February Peak
Median price eased slightly to $440.0K in March (from $444.8K in February) and average price pulled back to $469.7K (from $490.5K). This modest consolidation is typical mid-spring behavior — not a reversal. Prices remain well above year-ago levels and the $440K median range continues to hold firm.
💵 Pending Surge Signals Strong April
Pending listings jumped to 414 in March — up 26.6% from February and the highest count since May 2025 (387). This is the clearest leading indicator in months: April closings should be notably strong. The pending surge reflects both buyer urgency and the natural seasonal acceleration of the spring market.
⏳ Days on Market Compressing Fast
Median DOM dropped sharply to 32 days in March, down 9 days from February's 41 and the lowest reading since mid-2024. This is the single biggest month-over-month DOM improvement in over a year. Properties are moving meaningfully faster as spring buyer competition intensifies — a strong signal for sellers entering the market now.
🔮 Spring 2026 Outlook
The Tri-Cities market is firing on all cylinders entering peak spring. Sales up year-over-year, pending at a 10-month high, DOM compressing, and inventory growing but controlled. Expect April and May to be the strongest months of the year, with median prices likely to push back toward the $445–460K range as buyer competition peaks through early summer.
