Monroe County home prices are up 9% from last year. But buyers finally have more choices, too.

Here's what October's numbers show:
• Median sale price: $350,000, up 9.4% from last October
• Homes sold: 203, down 19% from a year ago
• Days on market: 36, up from 17 in June
• Months of supply: 4.7, the highest since fall 2024

At 4.7 months of supply, we're now in balanced-market territory. Prices are holding, but homes are taking longer to sell.

Selling? Pricing right from day one matters more now than it did this spring.
Buying? You have more room to negotiate than you've had all year.

These are countywide numbers. Every town is different. See how yours compares on my full market dashboard (link in the first comment).

"I'm waiting for rates to come down." I hear it every week. Here's what history says about that plan.

In 1971, the median new home cost $25,200 with rates around 7.3%. Buyers who held out for rates to drop just 1% waited 31 years, and by then the median price was $161,000.

Closer to home, Monroe County's median sale price went from $120,000 in January 2003 to $347,450 in August 2026.

Rates matter. Time in the market usually matters more.

Most buyers use their negotiating power to knock down the price. But that might not be the smartest move.

The same $10,000 can save you about $67 a month as a price reduction, or about $200 a month when used as a seller credit to buy down your interest rate. Same money, very different result.

I break down the math in this short video. If you're buying in the Poconos, let's talk strategy before you make your offer.

Same $10,000, very different savings. See the real math on negotiating price vs. buying down your mortgage rate — and which saves Pocono buyers more.

"I'll wait until interest rates come down." I hear this a lot — so here's some perspective. In 1971, U.S. home prices averaged $25,200 with rates at 7.3%. Waiting for a 1% drop back then meant waiting 31 years. In that time, prices rose over 500%. Today's median home price is north of $400,000. Waiting isn't free — it has a cost, even if it's not the one you're watching. Thinking about your own timeline? Let's talk.

History suggests waiting for interest rates to drop costs buyers far more in lost equity and appreciation than most expect.
