County-level for-sale inventory
Summit County Listing Inventory, 2019 to 2026
Research question
How did Summit County listing inventory change between August 2019 and August 2026?
Summit County had 891 active listings in August 2026, more than double the 360 of August 2021 but still below the 1,031 recorded in August 2019, per Realtor.com Economic Research county inventory data retrieved September 29, 2026. Inventory has rebuilt for five consecutive Augusts without returning to its pre-2020 shape. The supporting measures have changed with it: median days on market stood at 75, three days faster than August 2025 but 20 days quicker than 2019’s 95, and the share of listings with a price reduction was 14.17%, against 9.52% in 2019 and 5.82% at the 2021 low. The median list price of $1,596,750 is below 2023’s $1,890,000. This report lays out eight consecutive Augusts so the recovery can be judged against a pre-pandemic baseline rather than against the shortage year alone.

How far has listing inventory recovered since 2021?
The same-month comparison avoids mixing seasonal peaks and troughs. Active inventory fell from 1,031 in August 2019 to 360 in August 2021, then rebuilt to 891 by August 2026.
Median listing age followed a different path: 95 days in August 2019, 48 in 2021, and 75 in 2026. More inventory has returned, but the mix, pricing, and buyer pool are not identical to 2019.

Why does current supply still need segment-level analysis?
In August 2026, active listings were up 7.5% year over year while total listings were up 4.7%. The median list price was down 3.2%, new listings were down 2.1%, and pending listings were down 0.7%.
County totals can hide very different conditions by community, property type, price band, age, and amenity profile. The county series is best used to frame a property-specific comparison rather than replace one.
How were these figures produced?
- 1.Downloaded Realtor.com’s county inventory history file on September 29, 2026.
- 2.Selected Summit County, Utah and retained August observations for 2019 through 2026 to control for seasonality.
- 3.Kept listing measures separate from closed-sale and modeled-value measures.
What are the limits of this data?
- Realtor.com measures residential for-sale listings and may revise historical files.
- The August 2022 and August 2024 Summit County rows carried quality_flag 1 in the downloaded history and should be interpreted cautiously. The August 2026 row carried quality_flag 0.
- Median list price is not median sale price, and county totals do not establish conditions for a specific property.
