Source: Redfin Data Center, MLS sales; from June 2026 each month is a 3-month rolling window, its counts divided by 3. Typical price and $/sq ft are the monthly medians, weighted by sales. Redfin stopped publishing towns’ figures by property type after May 2026, so houses and condos are shown for the year to then.

What the sales history says · 14 years of sales

Bidding wars in Louisville are more common than before the pandemic, but 45% fewer homes come up for sale

We read every month of Louisville’s home sales since 2012 so you don’t have to. Each figure covers 12 months, because a single month in a town is too few sales to mean much. Latest: the year to September 2026, 134 sales.

If you’re buying in Louisville

  • Shop in May. It brings about 16 new listings a month, close to the busiest month, with fewer bidding wars (30% over asking).
  • Bid near asking. Buyers paid 98.7% of the list price on average; 32% paid over.
  • Move fast on good ones. Half of homes are under contract within two weeks.
