CLINTONVILLE MARKET UPDATE

August 2026

keeping you in the know on the Clintonville real estate market, and helping connect buyers and sellers in Clintonville.

July closed with 59 homes sold across Clintonville's 43214 and 43202 zip codes slightly more than June's 56 closings, and with a notable jump in price. The median sale price rose to $475,000, up $52,500 from June's $422,500, with average sold prices climbing to $478,000 and price per square foot reaching $325. Days on market stretched to 13.9, a natural summer exhale, but the sale-to-list ratio held firm at 101.6% meaning sellers are still getting full value on average. The $400–500k price range was the busiest segment of the month with 21 sales, a shift upward from June when $300–400k led the way.

August is the quiet stretch before the fall market wakes up. School is back in session, the summer buyers have largely wrapped up their searches, and homes that haven't moved tend to sit a little longer — which creates a brief but real window for buyers. Sellers who are still on the market this month are often more motivated than they were in June, and multiple-offer situations are rare. It's one of the more overlooked opportunities in Clintonville's annual cycle.

For homeowners not planning to move, August is a good month to take stock. If you've been putting off a repair, a paint project, or a landscaping refresh, now is the time — before the fall market picks back up in September and October. Clintonville historically sees a second wave of serious buyers in the fall, and homes that show well going into that window tend to move faster and closer to list price than those that haven't had any attention since spring.
