White Plains Real Estate Market Report: July 2026

White Plains blends residential neighborhoods with a busy downtown. You can be looking for a place to park near a restaurant one minute, going to The Westchester mall the next, and then touring a single-family home on a quieter street. July’s figures reflect those distinct property markets.

All comparisons are July 2026 versus July 2025 and cover the White Plains School District.

Single-Family Homes Come First

There were 29 single-family sales, up 38.1%. The median sale price was $960,000, up 4.3%, and median price per square foot rose 6.3% to $509. Median market time increased to 24 days, but 97% sold within 90 days and 93% sold for more than 95% of list price. Inventory declined 16.3% to 36 homes, equal to 2.30 months of supply.

Other White Plains Property Types

  • Condos: 16 sales (-27.3%); $550,750 median (+13.6%); 36 days; 45 listings and 3.44 months of supply.
  • Co-ops: 15 sales (+25.0%); $225,000 median (-1.1%); 32 days; 66 listings and 4.58 months of supply.
  • Multi-unit: no July sales, compared with one in July 2025; eight active listings and 8.73 months of supply. With no closing, there is no meaningful July median price or market-time figure.

These categories require separate comparisons. A downtown condo, a co-op near transportation and a single-family home should not be valued from the same citywide number.

The Inflation Backdrop

The Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis recently proposed PCE excluding energy goods as a useful way to view underlying inflation without overreacting to short-lived oil-price changes. Its analysis says recent core inflation remained closer to 3% than 2%. Inflation and monetary-policy expectations can influence borrowing costs, but the Fed article does not establish that national inflation caused White Plains’ July sales results.

Local Takeaway

Single-family supply remained tight even as closings increased. Sellers still need property-specific pricing; buyers should compare the correct neighborhood and housing type and be ready when a suitable home appears.
