What this means if you're buying

Inventory is tight, so be ready to move quickly: get pre-approved, see new listings in the first days, and know your walk-away number before you write.

What this means if you're selling

Buyers are competing for limited homes, but they still compare. Well-prepared, well-priced homes draw the strongest offers. Run your seller net sheet before you pick a list price.

More about Ann Arbor

How these numbers are calculated

Residential closed sales (houses and condos) recorded in the MLS for the municipality of Ann Arbor, October 2025 through September 2026, compared with the 12 months before. Months of supply = active listings ÷ average monthly sales. Days on market and sale-to-list exclude homes entered at closing that were never marketed. Off-MLS sales (cash, FSBO, wholesale) are not included, so these medians can differ from deed-based figures elsewhere on this site. Source: Realcomp II Ltd. Statistics compiled from Realcomp data.
