Northeast Wisconsin Real Estate Market Report
Dedicated Realtor That Looks Out For You.
WELCOME FROM DIANNA
Data Tells Half the Story
Numbers can tell you what's happening in a market—but they can't tell you what it means for your move.
A 1.4-month inventory number looks the same on a spreadsheet whether it's driven by low listings or high demand, and the difference matters a lot depending on whether you're buying or selling.
My goal with this report is to give you real, current numbers—then help you understand what they actually mean for your specific situation.
Welcome—I’m glad you're here.

Dianna's Insight
"The market doesn't care what you paid, what you hope to get, or what your neighbor's house sold for last year. It only cares about what's happening right now—and that's exactly what I'll help you understand."

WHY IT MATTERS
Numbers Only Help If You Know What They Mean
Market reports are full of terms that get thrown around without much explanation. Here's what each one actually tells you—and why it matters for your decision.
Median Home Price
The midpoint of all homes sold during a given period—half sold for more, half sold for less. It's a helpful snapshot, but it doesn't account for the specific condition, size, or location of any one home. That's where a personalized comparison comes in.
Days on Market
The average time a home stays listed before going under contract. A shorter number usually signals strong buyer demand; a longer one can mean more room to negotiate—for buyers and sellers alike.
Months of Inventory
This is the number that tells you who has the advantage right now:
Under 5 months = Seller's Market
5–6 months = Balanced Market
Over 6 months = Buyer's Market
"Local" is the key word here—inventory can look completely different a few miles apart, which is exactly why I break it down by county rather than giving you one number for the whole region.
Price-to-List Ratio
How close homes are actually selling to their asking price. A ratio near or above 100% usually signals a competitive market where buyers are offering close to (or above) list price.
Every number above tells part of the story—but the full picture depends on your specific neighborhood, price range, and goals. That's exactly what I'll walk you through when we talk.
READY FOR YOUR OWN NUMBERS?
This Report Is a Starting Point—Not the Whole Picture
Countywide data is useful, but it can only tell you so much. The real question isn't "what's the market doing in Outagamie County?"—it's "what's the market doing on your street, for a home like yours?"
That's the analysis I put together for every client, whether you're six months out from selling or just starting to think about buying.
Market conditions shift quickly, especially in competitive Fox Valley and Green Bay neighborhoods—so if it's been more than a month since you last checked in, it's worth a quick conversation.
"A market report tells you what's happening. A conversation with me tells you what it means for you. That's the part I actually enjoy most."
