A record Median Sales Price headlined the Greater Lehigh Valley REALTORS®’ (GLVR) June housing report, as buyer activity remained steady amid a persistently limited supply of homes. The Median Sales Price climbed 4.1 percent to $385,000, surpassing the highest median sales price of $375,000 first recorded in July 2025 and again matched in May 2026.

“June’s numbers show that buyers remain engaged even as affordability and limited inventory continue to shape the market,” said GLVR CEO Justin Porembo. “Pending sales rose 8 percent and new listings increased, but the supply of available homes remains exceptionally tight at just 1.4 months. That imbalance continues to place upward pressure on prices and underscores the need for policies that support the creation of more housing at a range of price points.”

June Stats

Closed Sales decreased 2.4 percent to 693 sales. Inventory slipped 4.9 percent, with 757 units available across Lehigh and Northampton counties. The Median Sales Price grew 4.1 percent to a record $385,000, up from $370,000 in June 2025.

Other notable housing statistics for June include:

  • New Listings increased 2.8 percent to 853 listings.
  • Pending Sales grew 8.0 percent to 729 listings.
  • Months Supply of Inventory came in at 1.4 months.
  • Percentage of List Price Received was largely steady (101.8 percent in June 2026 vs. 101.7 percent in June 2025).
  • Homes sold, on average, in 19 days, one day slower than the previous June.

In Carbon County, the Median Sales Price jumped to $306,000 — also a record for that county — while other core statistics remained largely steady. Closed Sales ended the month at 58 (vs. 59), Pending Sales came in at 67 (vs. 70), and there were 83 New Listings (vs. 85). Inventory fell to 149 units, resulting in a Months Supply of Inventory of 2.6 months. Homes sold in an average of 32 days.

“Buyers are still acting quickly when the right home comes to market, with properties selling in an average of just 19 days and for more than their asking price,” said GLVR President Cliff Lewis. “Carbon County offers somewhat more breathing room with 2.6 months of inventory, but choices remain limited throughout our region. Buyers should be prepared, understand their budgets and work with a REALTOR® who can help them navigate local conditions and make a competitive, informed offer.”
