Your Live Guide to the Alaska Real Estate Market

Whether you’re a long-time Alaskan or looking to call the Last Frontier home, staying on top of the market is the best way to feel confident in your next move. At Les Bailey & Associates, we believe that "together everyone achieves more," and that starts with making sure you have the same expert data we use every day.

We’ve just released our latest Area Pro Reports, and the trends for early 2026 are telling an interesting story. Whether you’re curious about your home’s current value or scouting for a new backyard in Wasilla, these reports are designed to give you a clear, honest look at the numbers that matter.

What’s Happening in Our Neighborhoods?

The Alaska market is unique and it doesn’t always follow the national headlines. That’s why we break things down by the specific areas where we live and work.

This month’s reports dive deep into:

• The Price Pulse: See how average sales prices in Anchorage compare to this time last year.
  
  
• Inventory Watch: Are more homes hitting the market in Eagle River, or is competition still tight?
  
  
• Speed of Sale: How many days are homes staying on the market in Palmer and Wasilla before going under contract?

Why We Share This

Information is power, but context is everything. Behind every "Sold" sign is a family making a big life change, and our team is here to make sure that transition is as smooth as possible.

The market is currently seeing a steady rise in home values, up roughly 3.3% to 6.5% depending on the neighborhood, but with homes taking slightly longer to go to pending than they did a year ago, strategy is more important than ever.

Let’s Chat

Numbers are a great starting point, but they don't tell your whole story. If you’re wondering how these trends impact your specific goals, like upgrading for a growing family or downsizing for retirement, we’d love to help you connect the dots.
