Sheboygan County saw year-over-year declines in the median sales price of a home in January, but at the same time there was an increase in the number of units sold according to the monthly report by the Wisconsin Realtors Association released on Thursday.
Statewide, new listings fell significantly in January, leading to tighter inventory. As a result, fewer exiting homes sold, and those that did were at higher prices compared to a year ago. The figures that bear this out: Existing home sales fell 3.9% compared to January of ‘25, while the median price rose 7.9% over that same period to $315,000. Analysts with the Wisconsin Realtors Association say that the decline in sales is likely only a temporary deviation from the trend of the last 28 consecutive months of growth.
Sheboygan County was the only member of surrounding counties to see a decline in the median price, falling 3.9% from a year ago to $270,000. Sales volume, however, rose by 13.6% over last year. Calumet County led sales volume increases with a 51.9% increase over 2025.
Sheboygan County saw a 3.6% decline in inventory over last year, while the average days on the market increased from 68 days last year to 83 days in 2026, a gain of 22.1%.
