What the sales history says · 14 years of sales

Bidding wars in Toledo are more common than before the pandemic, but a third fewer homes come up for sale

We read every month of Toledo’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 May 2026, 3,123 sales.

If you’re buying in Toledo

  • Shop in March. It brings about 348 new listings a month, close to the busiest month, with fewer bidding wars (6% over asking).
  • Bid near asking. Buyers paid 99.3% of the list price on average; 27% paid over.
  • You’ll usually have time. Only 40% of homes go under contract within two weeks; the typical one takes 44 days.
