What this means for you

A real take on the August 2026 Duluth numbers.

For buyers

If you're shopping in Duluth right now, you're still in a seller's market, but there are small signs of breathing room. Homes took 20 days to go under contract in August, up from 18 the month before. The sold-to-list price ratio dropped slightly to 97.7%, meaning buyers are getting a bit closer to asking rather than bidding over. That's not a dramatic shift, but it's real. Prices are down 2.2% compared to last August, with the median estimated value at $442,560. Inventory sits at 3.8 months of supply, still tight but up nearly 19% year over year. If you've been waiting for conditions to ease, this is probably as good as it gets for the next few months. You're not getting a buyer's market, but you're also not fighting ten offers on every house.

For sellers

Duluth sellers closed August with a median sale price of $427,500, up 7.7% from July. Homes are still moving quickly at 20 days on market, and the sold-to-list ratio of 97.7% means most sellers are getting close to their asking price. This is still a seller's market by definition, so you have leverage. Inventory has grown 18.9% compared to last year, now at 3.8 months of supply. Buyers have a few more options, and homes are sitting just a little longer. Pricing matters more now than it did six months ago. If you price at or just below market, you'll likely get an offer in three weeks. If you push too high, you'll sit.
