Area-by-Area Breakdown

• Coarsegold
  This community was the most active this week, bringing 3 new active listings onto the market. For buyers, that means fresh opportunities and more choices, which is always exciting in a market where inventory has been tight. Coarsegold also saw 2 pending listings and 1 closed sale, reflecting the balance between new inventory and homes being sold. If you’ve been considering Coarsegold, this is proof it remains one of the most dynamic real estate areas in the region.

• Oakhurst
  With its charm and proximity to Yosemite, Oakhurst continues to attract serious buyers. This week, it reported 3 pending homes, 1 closed sale, and 1 price change. That price adjustment could be a golden opportunity for buyers to step in and make a move, while the pending and closed numbers highlight ongoing demand.

• Bass Lake
  Known for its waterfront appeal and vacation lifestyle, Bass Lake showed 2 pending listings this week. Even though no new listings were added, buyers clearly have their eyes on this area, and when a home becomes available, it doesn’t last long.

• North Fork
  North Fork mirrored Bass Lake with 2 pending homes and 1 closed listing. Buyers here are drawn to the natural beauty and the central location, making it a strong competitor in the market.

• Ahwahnee
  This community delivered a nice balance with 1 home under contract and 1 closed sale. While smaller in size compared to Oakhurst or Coarsegold, Ahwahnee continues to move homes steadily.

• Yosemite Lakes Park
  This planned community saw 1 pending listing, reflecting continued buyer interest in this convenient location with amenities.

• Wishon
  Wishon recorded 1 expired listing, which reminds both buyers and sellers that pricing and strategy are key. Even in a strong market, setting the right price and presenting the home well makes all the difference.

Other communities such as Fish Camp, Wawona, and Raymond had no movement this week, but that doesn’t mean the activity is gone—it often means buyers are simply waiting for new inventory to arrive.

What These Numbers Mean for Sellers

For homeowners, the takeaway is clear: demand is still very strong. Homes are consistently going under contract across multiple areas, and closed sales show that buyers aren’t just browsing—they’re ready to make commitments.

Inventory remains limited in many communities, which gives sellers an edge. If your home is priced correctly and marketed strategically, it has an excellent chance of standing out in today’s competitive environment. The mix of new listings, pendings, and closed sales demonstrates that homes are moving at a steady pace, and buyers are prepared to act.

What These Numbers Mean for Buyers

For buyers, this week’s activity is encouraging. New listings in Coarsegold and a price change in Oakhurst provide more options and opportunities. Pending sales across Bass Lake, North Fork, and Yosemite Lakes Park prove that competition is active, but also that there’s confidence in the market.

The lesson? Don’t wait too long when you see a home you love. Buyers are stepping up and making offers, and inventory moves quickly. Working with a trusted agent ensures you’ll know about opportunities as soon as they come up—and have the best chance to secure your dream property.

This week’s market report is a reminder that Madera County real estate is thriving. Whether you’re drawn to the lakeside lifestyle of Bass Lake, the small-town charm of Coarsegold, the proximity to Yosemite in Oakhurst, or the peace and privacy of North Fork and Ahwahnee, there is truly something for everyone.

Sellers, this could be your moment to capture motivated buyers. Buyers, fresh inventory and occasional price adjustments mean it’s still a great time to find your perfect home.
