In June 2013, prospective homebuyers had 38 properties to choose from in Medford.

The decline in single-family homes led to less than one month supply of inventory (0.7 months) in June, a 41.7 percent decrease from the 1.2 months of supply in June 2018. About six months of inventory is considered a balanced market between home buyers and sellers.

From January through June, median home prices rose slightly to $614,000, a 1.5 percent increase from $605,000.

Unlike single-family homes, condominium inventory rose by two units from 34 to 36 condos available. The number of months supply of inventory declined slightly from 2.1 months in June 2018 to 1.9 months this past June.
