Is the Knoxville Market Cooling Off? The Data May Surprise You | April 2026 Market Update

Thinking of moving to Knoxville and wondering if the market is finally cooling down? 👀 The April 2026 numbers just came in, and the story they tell is critical for your relocation plans. My name is Todd Jewell, and as a relocation expert here in East Tennessee, my team and I help families just like yours make a smart move to the Knoxville area. In this video, we're cutting through the national headlines to give you the real, on-the-ground data for Knox County. We're breaking down exactly what's happening with home prices, how fast properties are selling, and what it all means for you as a buyer or seller. 🏡 This isn't your average market update. I explain why looking at the "median days on market" (just 18 days in April!) gives you a much more accurate picture than the average you hear on the news. We'll also cover the sold-to-list price ratio, which reveals how much negotiation power buyers currently have. We saw active listings increase, but with an absorption rate of just 2.69 months, Knoxville is still very much a seller's market. Inventory remains tight, especially in desirable areas. We'll look at the sold median price of $402,050 and compare it to last year to see where home values are truly heading. 📈 The key takeaway? The Knoxville real estate market is solid and stable. For buyers, this means you can find a home, but you need to be prepared and act decisively. For sellers, it's a fantastic time to list, provided your home is priced correctly for its location and condition. I also share my thoughts on why the market could get even more competitive in the coming months, making a strong case for why acting sooner rather than later might be your best strategy. This video is essential viewing for anyone considering a move to East Tennessee, whether you're a family looking for the right neighborhood, a retiree planning to downsize, or a luxury buyer seeking a new home. 💭 Thinking about moving to Knoxville or anywhere in East Tennessee?
