This month, we\u2019ve seen active home listings rise by just 0.6% compared to last year\u2014noticeably less than the national average of 2.1%. New listings are also up by 0.6%, while the median sale price remains steady at $299,950. What\u2019s interesting for both buyers and sellers: homes are taking a bit longer to sell, with a median of 68 days on the market. These numbers remind me that every move is a significant transition. My approach as a Realtor and certified life coach is to help clients make sense of changes like these, so each decision feels informed and supported.<\/p>\n<p>\t<a class=\"roomvu-news-continue\" href=\"https:\/\/www.realtor.com\/news\/local\/baton-rouge-la\/real-estate-market-baton-rouge-la-july-2026\/\"><\/p>\n<div>Continue to full article<\/div>\n<p>\t<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As someone who cares deeply about guiding clients through the emotional and financial journey of homeownership, I keep a close eye on market shifts in Baton Rouge.
