Total Sales Volume — Last 12 Months
Reported sales within our Smith Lake search area
MLS · 427 observed closed listings · USD
The sum of reported sold prices for closed listings in this period.
Residential, vacant land and commercial sales matching our saved Smith Lake boundary and MLS selections. Other MLS sources and properties without usable map locations are excluded.
The filters below do not change this search-area total.
Official MLS export observations · export observed Nov 3, 2026, imported Nov 3, 2026, 8:11 AM Central. Only exact matching eligible lake listings contribute. Each DOM figure states its known sample; missing values are excluded. Active DOM is the exported observation and does not increase between exports. Original asking prices from this export fill missing source values for aggregate calculations only. Source-known originals, current asking prices and sold prices are preserved. Price comparisons use known pairs at the observed source/export times and do not establish a complete price history.
Current statuses use asking price; closed-sale statistics use reported sold price. Unknown required prices do not pass a price filter. Waterfront means an explicit MLS-reported waterfront label.

Look inside the market
Price bands and property types help show the mix behind an overall median.
Where supply and sales sit
Active bands use asking price. Sold bands use sold price. Upper band boundaries are excluded.

Supply, pace and price adjustments
Supply uses the three completed calendar months Aug 1, 2026–Oct 31, 2026, avoiding a partial-month projection.

Reading the numbers
Calculated directly from the selected MLS snapshot. These observations do not use a generated valuation or predict future prices.
410 active listings are observed in the selected snapshot. Pending (2) and active-with-contingency (21) are shown separately rather than counted as available active supply.
The past 90 days contain 115 observed closings, with a median sold price of $695,000 among 115 known prices. Changes in property type, location and condition can affect the median; it is not an appraisal of an individual property.
124 of 410 active listings with both prices reported have an asking price below their original asking price (30.2%). This compares two source prices; it does not count reduction events or establish when a price changed.
The source, the scope and the math
Connected MLS data. Figures reflect our currently connected sources. Other MLSs, private sales and omitted or unauthorized records are not included. Reporting area: Smith Lake saved map boundary in Walker, Winston and Cullman counties; Yes–Lake, Water Access Only and No–None; not all MLSs or all transactions. The report covers the property types identified in its tables.
Retained history begins Nov 1, 2024. A dash means unavailable; an observed zero is displayed as 0. These figures describe the source snapshot checked above; they are not a real-time inventory quote.
- The reporting date follows Central Time. Closing windows use the MLS-reported closing date; invalid or future closing dates are excluded. The checked time shows when the source snapshot was retrieved.
- Active, pending and active-with-contingency listings are separate groups. A property is counted once at its reported status. New MLS entry counts do not establish its original listing date or official days on market.
- The twelve-month sales-volume headline covers reported residential, vacant land and commercial sales from the connected MLS that match our saved Smith Lake search area and location checks, independently of the filters below it. It includes the day after last year’s anniversary through the reporting date and sums known, positive sold prices. Missing prices are excluded and identified; incomplete history or an unusable total is shown as unavailable.
- Current inventory uses asking prices; closed-sale statistics use sold prices. Price filters include both selected limits. Each fixed price band includes its lower limit and excludes its upper limit. Unknown prices do not pass a price filter.
- Averages and medians include only usable reported values. Known n states the sample size behind each figure. Missing days on market and original asking prices are never estimated from other dates or prices. Small samples deserve extra caution.
- Home and condo prices per square foot use reported living area. Land prices per acre use reported acreage. These are separate comparisons; a missing or zero area is excluded.
- Price reductions compare original and current asking prices where both are reported. Fresh official MLS exports may fill missing original prices for exact matching listings in aggregate calculations only; source-known originals are preserved. Original price refers to that MLS listing, not the property’s first-ever asking price. These comparisons do not count reduction events or identify when a price changed. Sold-to-last-ask percentages require both reported prices.
- The 30-, 90- and 365-day periods include both endpoints. Comparisons use the preceding equal-length window or the corresponding window a year earlier. Incomplete history or a zero comparison baseline leaves percentage change unavailable. The current month is marked MTD and is not a full-month comparison.
- Months of supply divides current active inventory by average monthly closings from the previous three completed calendar months. Complete history and a positive closing pace are required. It describes the observed mix of listings and sales; it does not predict future prices.
The lake isn’t one price point.
