What’s happening with home prices right now?

• April 2026: $462,500

• March 2026: $455,000

• April 2025: $425,000

That’s:

• + $7,500 from last month

• + $37,500 from last year

This is where Buyers get caught.

It doesn’t feel urgent, so they wait.

Then months go by… and they’re buying the same type of home for more.

“ Prices are not jumping… but they’re not going backward either.”

Are homes still taking a long time to sell?

• April 2026: 126 days

• March 2026: 176 days

• April 2025: 126 days

That 50-day drop from March matters.

We’re right back to last year’s pace.

So no, the market isn’t slow.

It just had a slower month… and then moved again.

“ The market didn’t suddenly speed up… it corrected.”

How did Typhoon Sinlaku affect the April market?

April wasn’t a normal month.

We had Typhoon Sinlaku, and even though Guam didn’t take a direct hit like the CNMI, it still disrupted daily life.

During a storm cycle:

• showings get delayed

• inspections and appraisals get pushed

• Buyers pause and reassess

• Sellers focus on securing their homes

• timelines shift

  “ April’s numbers need to be read with Typhoon Sinlaku in mind.”

So when you see days on market improve despite that disruption, it tells you something important.

There’s still movement in the market.

And after a storm, Buyers look at homes differently.

They pay more attention to:

• roof condition

• drainage

• shutters or window protection

• signs of water intrusion

• overall maintenance

“ After a storm, Buyers don’t just look at price. They look harder at condition.”

Are Buyers still negotiating hard?

• April 2026: 97.11%

• March 2026: 96.13%

• April 2025: 96.30%

Not a huge shift. But enough to show direction.

“ Buyers are starting to lose a little bit of leverage ”

What’s happening with inventory?

• April 2026: 9 months

• March 2026: 10 months

• April 2025: 13 months

Less inventory builds pressure over time.

And that’s what we’re starting to see.

“ Inventory has been quietly dropping all year.”

So what does this mean if you’re SELLING?

A lot of Sellers are still thinking like it’s last year.

That’s where mistakes happen.

What’s working:

• Pricing based on current demand

• Strong presentation, especially after storm season

• Avoiding long days on market

  “ Right now, you don’t win by pricing low. You win by positioning right.”

We had a Seller recently who almost priced too low.

We adjusted the strategy, and they saw stronger interest than expected.

Same market. Different approach.

What does this mean if you’re BUYING?

Waiting feels safe.

But it’s not neutral.

Right now:

• Prices are rising slowly

• Homes are moving faster

• Sellers are negotiating less

• Inventory is tightening

  “ Waiting is still a decision… and it can cost you ”

You don’t need to rush.

But you do need to be ready.

Three Key Takeaways

• Prices are rising steadily

• Homes are selling faster again

• Inventory continues to drop

If you want to explore where opportunities are showing up…

Homes in this price range are often showing up in these areas:

• Yigo homes for sale

• Dededo homes for sale

• Tamuning homes for sale

• Mangilao homes for sale

• Barrigada homes for sale
