Right now East Tennessee counts 128 active listings, up 1 since the last edition. Of those, 126 state an asking price, and the medians below read from them. The median asking price is $279,950, down $10,050 since the last edition. The listings sit in 53 cities, as the listings spell them.

Net, the market added 1 listing. The MLS does not say why a listing left, and the page does not guess: a listing can leave for many reasons.

New listings were most common in Jefferson City, 2 and Sparta, 1.

New listings make up 2.3% of the 128 homes on the market now.

A home counts as new if it was not on the market at our last check. This is our first look at some areas, and nothing counts as new there until the next check, so new listings will show up then.

The median asking price is $279,950, down $10,050 since the last edition, among 126 priced listings.

Knoxville has the most listings, 16 of the 128, or 12.5%, down 1 since the last edition. Lenoir City comes next with 8.

The market divides into sections by what a listing states. Commercial has 19 and Land & development has 109. Among the sections, the median asking price runs from $74,999 for commercial to $395,000 for land & development.

The most listings ask under $300k: 69 of the 126 that state a price, 54.8% of them, up 3 since the last edition.

Four asking-price bands hold a listing. The $300–500k band has 20, or 15.9%. The $500–800k band has 12, or 9.5%. The $800k+ band has 25, or 19.8%.

Listings wait longest in the $300–500k band, a median of 189 days. They wait least in the $500–800k band, a median of 132 days.

The band edges are the same every day, so a count can be compared across editions. The under $300k band holds 54.8% of priced listings and the $800k+ band holds 19.8%.

The biggest change since the last edition is in the under $300k band, up 3 to 69.

The next four: Sevierville has 7, Jacksboro has 6, Maryville has 5 and Vonore has 4. Together the five busiest cities hold 32.8% of the market.

Among cities with three or more listings, the median asking price is highest in Lenoir City, at $717,500. It is lowest in White Pine, at $35,000, a difference of $682,500.

Listings have waited longest in Madisonville, a median of 342 days, and least in Jefferson City, a median of 1 days.

Thirty-four cities have fewer than three listings, so they get a count and no median.

The city is whatever the listing says it is. A different spelling of the same city is counted under its own spelling, so the counts are of the names as listed.

A typical active listing has waited 141 days, down 3 since the last edition. That is read from 128 listings with a listing date.

Ten came on in the last 30 days, 7.8% of those with a date. Twenty-seven have waited between 30 and 90 days, and 91 have waited 90 days or more, 71.1%.

What moved: three new listings came on and two listings left the active market.

By asking-price band, under $300k is the biggest group at 54.8% of the 126 priced listings.
