Last update: Nov. 7, 2025, midnight Source: IAR MLS Data Warehouse Data notes: While not all pending contracts result in a closed sale, they are a very strong predictor of sales trends five weeks in the future. Pending contracts may be posted to an MLS system after their pending date. Historically, 81% of listings are posted within three days and 92% within seven days. A listing that goes pending more than once in a month now counts once per pending, rather than once for the month. Expected values were refit in August 2026 and now align to the month they describe.

Last update: Nov. 7, 2025, midnight Source: IAR MLS Data Warehouse Data notes: Days on market is the time from listing to pending for listings that went under contract within the period. To filter out erroneous data, this filters out listings with a pending date before 2017. There is delay in entering pending dates, so recent months represent only the portion of sales with a pending date. Expected values were refit in August 2026 and now align to the month they describe.
