Johnstown prices were nearly flat while supply got tighter

Here is the one thing that matters most right now. The Real Estate Data Aggregator counted 223 homes for sale in ZIP 80534 during the three months ending July 31, 2026. That is down 21.5% from a year before. Fewer choices for buyers means your listing faces less competition, if the price is right.

The Real Estate Data Aggregator put the median sale price in 80534 at $492,815 for the three months ending July 31, 2026. That is down 1.2% from the same months of 2025. Prices dipped a little, but not by much. For context, the Federal Housing Finance Agency reported U.S. home prices rose 2.6% year over year through July 2026. Johnstown ran behind that national pace, but the gap is not dramatic.

Homes are taking a little longer, but sellers are still getting close to asking

The Real Estate Data Aggregator shows the median home in 80534 sat on the market 60 days. That is 4 days longer than the same period last year. Not every home sold fast. Still, the average sale came in at 99.7% of list price, up 0.1 points from a year before. That means sellers are not giving much away.

Nationally, Realtor.com reported that 20.8% of listings had a price cut in September, the highest share since October 2022. Mortgage rates topped 7% for the first time since January 2025, according to Realtor.com. Those pressures are real. Johnstown is not immune to them.

Nearly 1 in 5 homes sold above asking

The Real Estate Data Aggregator found that 19.9% of homes in 80534 sold above list price during the three months ending July 31, 2026. That is up 1.9 points from a year before. Not a majority, but a meaningful share. Pricing well still draws real competition.

New listings are also down, which keeps supply tight

The Real Estate Data Aggregator counted 220 new listings in 80534 for the three months ending July 31, 2026. That is down 15.4% from a year before. Fewer new listings coming in, and fewer total homes for sale, means the pool stays lean. Months of supply fell 1 full month to 3.5 months.

About 21.8% of homes went under contract within two weeks of listing, per the Real Estate Data Aggregator. That is up 0.3 points from a year before. Roughly 1 in 5 well-priced homes found a buyer quickly. The rest took longer.

One more thing: these are ZIP code numbers. One street in Johnstown can read very differently from 80534 as a whole. A home near a park, a school or a main road can move faster or slower than the median. The numbers above are the starting point, not the whole story.
