McKenzie Towne Housing Market Update – August 2026

The benchmark price was $472,500, down 2% year over year. Because only two sales occurred, the monthly results should be interpreted cautiously.

McKenzie Towne apartments recorded six sales and seven new listings, producing an 86% sales-to-new-listings ratio and 2.5 months of supply.

Overall, detached homes remained the strongest segment, while row homes faced more competition and greater downward pressure on prices. Across the community, longer selling times and sale-to-list-price ratios of 96% to 99% show that accurate pricing remained essential.
