Maxwell Market Heat Score: A Balanced Window in October

What does the balance of Maxwell's market look like for buyers and sellers? ALEX Intelligence calculated a composite heat score by weighing four key indicators: median days on market, the close-to-list price ratio, inventory levels, and the share of listings with price cuts. The result points to a balanced market where neither side holds a decisive advantage. Over the rolling six months ending October 31, 2026, Maxwell saw 105 closed sales. Homes spent a median of 40 days on the market, a significant drop from the 75 days in the prior six-month period, yet still up 90.5% compared to the same window last year. This volatility suggests shifting momentum rather than a sustained trend. Buyers are negotiating closer to asking prices, with the median close-to-original list ratio rising to 95.8%, up from 88.2% previously. Inventory remains steady at 113 active listings, creating roughly 6.46 months of supply. While this is slightly above the traditional six-month balance point, the rapid improvement in negotiation power indicates a market that has cooled from its peak but remains active. The median sale price settled at $233,000, down 9.7% from last year, reflecting broader regional adjustments rather than local distress.
