Sportsman Harbor right now

🟡 Balanced market. 5.0 months of supply and 29% of the inventory already under contract put buyers and sellers on roughly even footing.Why it matters: months of supply is how long today's inventory would last at today's sales pace; under-contract share is the portion of homes for sale that already have a buyer.Momentum Research analysis of realMLS records, as of July 14, 2026. Confidence: High (7 active and pending listings, 12 closed sales in 12 months).

🔴 Off the recent peak. The trailing-12-month median ($279K) is down 10.3% from the prior 12 months ($311K) and up 97% since 2012. With about a dozen sales a year, a single closing can swing this number, so read the level and the decade, not one year's move.Momentum Research, record-level realMLS closed sales, 12-month windows ending July 14. Confidence: Low (12 and 4 sales in the two windows).

If we were buying in Sportsman Harbor today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.

1

Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.

2

Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.

3

Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.

4

Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.

5

Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Sportsman Harbor.

The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Sportsman Harbor. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
