Madera County Real Estate Market Update - Week of September 21-27, 2026
The latest Weekly Market Update Report for September 21–27, 2026, based on Fresno and CRMLS Matrix data for Madera County and surrounding areas, shows continued real estate activity across several of our local mountain communities.
From new properties coming onto the market to homes moving into contract, completed sales, and a significant number of price adjustments, this week's report gives both buyers and sellers plenty to watch.
Across Bass Lake, Oakhurst, Coarsegold, North Fork, Ahwahnee, Fish Camp, Wawona, Yosemite, Wishon, and Raymond, the market continues to offer different opportunities depending on what you're looking for.
For buyers, there are 13 active listings to explore, along with 14 properties already under contract or pending. For sellers, 5 closed transactions demonstrate that properties are successfully making their way through the buying and selling process.
Another important part of this week's report is the 29 price changes. For buyers, price adjustments can create opportunities to revisit properties that may have previously been outside their budget or didn't quite meet their expectations. For sellers, these changes highlight the importance of competitive pricing and an effective marketing strategy.
According to the September 21–27 weekly report, the communities included recorded:
The numbers show a market with plenty of movement.
The combination of 13 active properties and 14 pending properties is especially notable. Buyers have homes to consider, while other buyers are already taking action and moving forward with purchases.
For sellers, the five closed transactions and fourteen pending properties provide a positive reminder that buyers are participating in the market and that properly positioned homes can attract attention.
Oakhurst recorded 5 active listings, 5 pending listings, 1 expired listing, 2 closed listings, 9 price changes, and 1 canceled/withdrawn listing this week.
The 5 pending listings show that there is active buyer participation in the community. At the same time, the 5 active listings give prospective buyers current opportunities to explore.
The 9 price changes are particularly interesting for buyers. If you've been searching in Oakhurst and haven't found the right property yet, this is a good reminder to continue checking the market. A property that didn't fit your budget or preferences when you first saw it may be worth another look after a price adjustment.
Oakhurst continues to offer a convenient starting point for people who want access to the Sierra mountain lifestyle while still having access to local businesses, restaurants, services, schools, recreation, and nearby communities.
For homeowners considering selling, the activity in Oakhurst also provides useful information. With multiple active properties competing for buyer attention, thoughtful pricing, professional presentation, and strong marketing can help a property stand out.
Coarsegold recorded 5 active listings, 5 pending listings, 2 expired listings, 2 closed listings, 8 price changes, and 2 canceled/withdrawn listings.
This gives buyers a combination of current inventory and evidence that properties are moving forward.
The 5 active listings provide opportunities for buyers who are currently looking, while the 5 pending listings demonstrate that other buyers are already moving ahead with purchases.
The 8 price changes also give buyers another reason to keep watching Coarsegold.
For buyers looking for additional space, privacy, larger lots, mountain surroundings, or a quieter lifestyle, Coarsegold can offer a wide range of property possibilities.
For sellers, the market activity demonstrates why understanding current competition is important. Before listing a home, homeowners should consider recent comparable sales, competing properties, property condition, pricing, photography, and overall marketing strategy.
A well-prepared listing can help buyers understand the value and unique features of a property.
Bass Lake recorded 3 active listings, 2 pending listings, and 3 price changes during the week.
For buyers interested in Bass Lake, having 3 active properties to explore provides opportunities to find a home that fits different needs and lifestyles.
The 2 pending listings also show that buyers are actively pursuing properties in this popular mountain community.
Bass Lake can be especially appealing to buyers searching for a recreational lifestyle, vacation home, second home, investment property, or a residence surrounded by beautiful mountain and lake scenery.
The three price changes also make it worthwhile for buyers to continue monitoring the area. Real estate searches shouldn't necessarily end after seeing a property once. Changes in price or circumstances can make a property more interesting later.
For homeowners thinking about selling a Bass Lake property, marketing the lifestyle can be just as important as marketing the house itself. Features such as outdoor living spaces, lake proximity, views, amenities, recreational opportunities, and vacation potential can help tell the full story of a property.
North Fork recorded 1 pending listing, 1 closed listing, and 4 price changes during the reporting period.
While no active listing was reported in the table this week, the pending and closed activity shows that transactions are still taking place.
The 4 price changes also provide buyers with properties to watch and potentially revisit.
North Fork offers a more rural mountain lifestyle and can be appealing to buyers looking for privacy, acreage, outdoor recreation, and a slower pace of living.
Because inventory in smaller communities can change from week to week, buyers who have their heart set on North Fork may benefit from staying connected with a local real estate professional who can help them watch for new opportunities.
Raymond recorded 1 active listing, 2 expired listings, and 4 price changes.
The active listing gives buyers a current opportunity to explore, while the 4 price changes demonstrate that buyers should continue watching properties even if they have already searched the area.
Raymond offers a more rural setting and may appeal to buyers who are looking for additional space, land, privacy, and a different lifestyle from more populated areas.
For sellers, understanding how your property compares with other homes currently available can help determine an effective pricing and marketing strategy.
The report also includes several communities where activity was more limited during this particular week.
Wishon recorded 1 pending listing, showing that a property is moving forward toward a completed transaction.
Wawona recorded 1 price change, while Ahwahnee, Fish Camp, and Yosemite showed no activity in the categories reported for this particular week.
It's important to remember that a zero in a weekly report does not mean there is no real estate interest in a community. It simply reflects that no activity in that particular category was recorded during the reporting period.
Mountain communities can have limited inventory, so activity can change considerably from one week to the next.
One of the biggest highlights of this week's report is the 29 price changes recorded across the communities.
For buyers, this is an important number.
If you've been searching for a home but haven't found something that fits your budget, don't assume that the properties you've already seen are no longer possibilities. A price adjustment can change the equation.
Buyers should consider regularly reviewing:
Sometimes the right opportunity isn't necessarily the newest listing—it can be a property that has become more attractive because of a recent change.
The report is also encouraging for homeowners who have been thinking about selling.
With 14 properties pending or under contract and 5 closed listings, there is evidence of buyers moving forward with transactions across the communities included in this report.
At the same time, the 29 price changes show that sellers are actively responding to market conditions.
This makes proper pricing and marketing especially important.
Before putting your home on the market, it's helpful to understand what similar properties are currently available, what comparable homes have recently sold for, and what features buyers are responding to.
A professional Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) can provide homeowners with a better understanding of where their property may fit within the current market.
And remember, every property is different. Location, acreage, condition, improvements, views, amenities, access, and overall presentation can all affect a property's appeal.
One of the things that makes the Madera County real estate market special is the variety of lifestyles available.
Buyers can explore the lake lifestyle around Bass Lake, the established communities of Oakhurst and Coarsegold, the rural surroundings of North Fork and Raymond, and the beautiful mountain communities of Ahwahnee, Fish Camp, Wawona, Wishon, and Yosemite.
Whether you're looking for a primary residence, vacation home, investment property, land, a place to relocate, or simply a home where you can enjoy more space and the outdoors, there are many different possibilities to consider.
The key is finding the community and property that best fits your individual goals.
The September 21–27, 2026 Weekly Market Update shows continued movement throughout Madera County and the surrounding mountain communities.
With 13 active listings, 14 pending listings, 5 closed sales, and 29 price changes, there are opportunities for buyers to explore and important market information for sellers to consider.
For buyers, now is a good time to keep watching the market, revisit properties that have changed price, and be prepared when the right home becomes available.
For sellers, the continued pending and closed activity demonstrates that buyers are still making decisions. A carefully priced and professionally marketed property can give sellers an opportunity to reach those buyers.
Whether you're looking to buy your first home, purchase a vacation property, invest in real estate, relocate to the mountains, or sell your current home, having someone who understands the local market can make the process easier.
