ZIP 14701 Housing Market & Real Estate Update — February 21, 2026
14701 – February 21, 2026 – Inventory is higher and prices are softer year over year; buyers have leverage as days on market stretch locally.
ZIP 14701 (Jamestown, Chautauqua County, NY) is showing a more negotiable feel than the peak years: buyers have more choices, and pricing is more sensitive to condition.
- Inventory is up: Realtor.com’s ZIP dashboard shows 209 active listings in its latest reporting period (December 2025), up about 45.83% year over year.
- Prices are mixed depending on the dataset: Realtor.com reports a $89,900 median home figure for December 2025 (-18.94% YoY), while Redfin’s closed-sale snapshot shows a $125,000 median sale price (-3.8% YoY). Treat this as a trend check, not a single ‘true’ number.
- Homes are taking longer to clear: Realtor.com shows 83 average days on market (December 2025) and a 97% sale-to-list ratio, a setup that can favor buyers who are patient and inspection-focused.
Market snapshot (latest available)
In practice, 14701 feels like a ‘condition and pricing’ market. Clean, updated homes can still move, but anything dated (roof/HVAC age, water intrusion, old windows) is more likely to sit and invite negotiation. If you are buying, compare multiple listings and keep repair budgets realistic. If you are selling, pre-list repairs and strong photos can reduce days on market.
What’s for sale nearby (no addresses)
