Real Estate Market Trends

The latest Madison County real estate market update shows a market that’s stabilizing, but requiring more precision from both buyers and sellers.This past week, we saw 32 new listings and 17 closed sales, signaling steady activity but a growing gap between supply and demand.The median sold price held at $289,900, which continues to reflect solid value across Madison County homes.
