How to read this table
Every marker is colored by what the move means, not just its direction: falling mortgage rates, supply, and days to pending read as green because they favor a sale. The small figure under each marker is the baseline the change is measured against. Listing prices and inventory are strongly seasonal, so the year over year column is the meaningful comparison.
Sales and Supply: Did Homes Actually Move?
Completed sales averaged 10,803 homes a month in Q2 2025 (up 0.3% against the same months a year earlier), with pending sales, the deals going under contract, running 13,179 a month. At that pace the market held 2.3 months of supply, seller's market territory by the common rule of thumb, and the typical home that sold went under contract in 25 days.
City Check: Michigan's Largest Cities in Q2 2025
Typical home values from the Zillow Home Value Index (ZHVI), city proper rather than metro, with movement markers and the baseline each change is measured against:

|---|---|---|---|
| Detroit | $79,964 | ◆ 0.0%vs $79,964 | ▲ 1.0%vs $79,172 |
| Grand Rapids | $302,612 | ◆ 0.0%vs $302,612 | ▲ 1.6%vs $297,846 |
| Warren | $199,418 | ▲ 0.3%vs $198,822 | ▲ 3.2%vs $193,234 |
| Sterling Heights | $305,797 | ▲ 0.7%vs $303,671 | ▲ 4.4%vs $292,909 |
| Lansing | $166,641 | ▲ 1.6%vs $164,017 | ▲ 5.5%vs $157,954 |
Lansing led the five in Q2 2025 at 5.5% year over year; Detroit trailed at 1%.
