Westminster Market Update: 321 Homes for Sale, Selling at 99.2% of List (October 2026)

Westminster's housing market is heading into the fall with a full head of steam — and the numbers tell a clear story. According to AreaPro market data as of October 9, 2026, there are 321 active listings across the city, sellers are getting 99.2% of list price on average, and homes that sell are going under contract in about 38 days. Whether you're thinking of buying, selling, or just keeping an eye on your home's value, here's what the latest data shows.

How fast homes are moving

Speed is the headline. Homes that sold in the last six months spent an average of just 38 days on the market — while the homes still sitting active today average 61 days. That gap tells you something useful: well-priced, well-presented homes are moving quickly, and the ones lingering tend to be the ones that missed the mark on price or presentation. Right now 72 homes are pending sale, a 22% pending ratio, which means roughly one in five listings is already spoken for. Browse homes for sale in Westminster to see what's moving this week.

What sellers are getting

The average sold price over the last six months landed at $605,990 — and sellers collected 99.2% of their final list price on average. That is about as close to full asking as markets get, and it means pricing discipline is paying off: the typical seller listed at $626,483 originally, adjusted to $613,681, and closed at $605,990. Small, strategic adjustments — not fire sales — are how deals are getting done. If you're curious where your own home fits, find out what your home is worth with a current valuation.

Where the action is: the $450K–$600K stretch

The engine of Westminster's market sits squarely between $450,000–$600,000. The $500,000–$600,000 band alone produced 127 sales in six months — more than any other slice — at 99.7% of list price, with 92 homes currently active. Just below it, the $450,000–$500,000 band added another 80 sales at 99.2% of list. Together, these two bands account for more than 40% of all recent sales. Above $600,000, the $600,000–$700,000 band is holding at an even 100.0% of list price. And at the top end, homes priced at $1 million and above are the tightest segment in the city: just 12 active listings against 2.0 months of supply.

Supply check: 3.8 months of inventory

Westminster is carrying 3.8 months of supply with a 26.4% absorption rate — a market with real choices for buyers but still firm enough that sellers are getting near asking. For context, six months of supply is the traditional line between a seller's and a buyer's market, so Westminster sits on the seller's side of balanced without tipping into frenzy. Under $500,000, supply runs a touch higher at 4.1 months, giving first-time and move-up buyers a bit more breathing room — and 209 sales in six months at 98.9% of list shows that segment is plenty active.

The seasonal rhythm

Sales followed the classic annual curve this year: a spring surge peaking around April, a strong early summer, and a gradual settle back toward ~71 sales per month by early October. That's the normal seasonal pattern, not a warning sign — fall buyers face less competition while sellers still benefit from steady demand. With mortgage rates in the low 7s, buyers who stay in the game are finding something the spring crowds didn't have: room to negotiate on the homes that have been sitting. Our recent guide to buying when rates topped 7.5% breaks down the moves working right now.

What this means for your move

If you're selling in Westminster, the data rewards preparation: price to the comps, present the home well, and the market is paying 99% of asking in about five weeks. If you're buying, the opportunity is in the active inventory — 321 choices, a 22% pending ratio, and sellers who have already shown they'll adjust to meet the market. Either way, the numbers favor the side that comes prepared. Talk to a local expert about what these trends mean for your specific home or search.
