St. Louis, Missouri · Local Market Expertise
I began my real estate career in St. Louis in 2006 and spent two decades helping families buy and sell across the metro. Today I am a licensed broker in North Carolina, South Carolina, Missouri, and Florida, and I bring a rare combination to every transaction: deep, first-hand knowledge of St. Louis neighborhoods plus the experience of a national agent. This page gives you a clear, honest look at the St. Louis market in 2026, the homes I currently represent in the area, and how we can work together.
Whether you are a first-time buyer, a growing family, a veteran, or a seller getting ready for your next chapter, you will always get straight answers and real numbers from me. That is how I have built my business for 20 years: one trusted relationship at a time.
The Numbers, Honestly Explained
Here is where the St. Louis metro stands right now, using the latest figures published through early fall 2026. Because county data lands at different times, the months covered vary by area: the City through June 2026, St. Louis County through August 2026, St. Charles through May 2026, and Jefferson through spring 2026. These are approximate research ranges compiled from current public market sources, including Redfin and MARIS-based reports, and they vary by source, neighborhood, and price band. Think of them as a trusted starting point, not a promise.
Approx., mid-2026, varying by county: about 2.0 for single-family metro-wide, about 2.3 in St. Louis County, and under 3 in St. Charles, per MARIS-based reports.
St. Louis City, approximate; $261,000 median sold price for June 2026 sales, up about 0.8% year over year, per the county's MLS update.
St. Louis County, approximate; $325,000 median sold price for August 2026, up about 12% year over year, per the September county update.
County median up about 12% year over year (Aug 2026), the City roughly flat, and Jefferson up about 4% (3 months ending May 2026).
Well-priced homes in the best suburbs still move in about 17-20 days per Redfin 2026; mid-2026 MARIS-based reports put the regional median days on market near 49.
New listings are up and single-family supply sits near two months metro-wide (MARIS, mid-2026), less tight than the critically low levels of 2023-2024.

City, County & Suburbs
One of the most important things to understand about real estate here: the St. Louis metro is really a collection of distinct markets, not one monolith. The City and the County are separate municipalities with different price points, different inventory, and different buyer pools. And the surrounding Missouri suburbs, north and south, tell their own stories again. I work across all four corners of it, and I can help you read each one honestly.
I serve the whole St. Louis metro: the city, the county, St. Charles, and Jefferson. From city lofts and historic river neighborhoods to family-friendly suburbs and new-construction communities, I can tell you exactly which area matches your budget, your commute, and your lifestyle. Arnold, where one of my current listings is located, is a great example: a Jefferson County suburb with easy metro access and real value for buyers.

I treat every client like family, which means honest answers, clear numbers, and an education-first approach that leaves you confident at every step. You will know what you can afford, what an offer should look like, and what each negotiation really means before you sign anything. Twenty years in this business, and that has never changed.
