For buyers
Compare current competition within the location, condition, property type and price range that matter to you. When complete closing history is unavailable, an asking-price snapshot cannot establish a typical negotiated discount or a sale-price trend.
For sellers
An area's asking median is a reference point. Our team can help identify relevant competing properties and verified comparable sales for a property-specific pricing discussion.
Price bands and property types
Current bands use asking prices. Verified closed-sale bands use sold prices. A partial observed subset is labeled rather than presented as the entire inventory.

MLS sources, coverage and methodology
Current observations by MLS
These source summaries remain separate. An observed subset is not a complete market inventory, and overlapping MLS records must not be counted twice.

Data available from each MLS
The table identifies which observations support the current active-listing measures in this property view. A missing field stays unavailable; it is not treated as a false property feature.

MLS sources and report methodology
Requested sources: Greater Alabama MLS and Walker County MLS. The coverage below identifies whether a complete combined snapshot can be established.
- Report area: Smith Lake, Alabama. The website's Exact unsimplified owner-saved Smith Lake map overlay (105 vertices; version 2026-10-31.1), submitted as a native polygon query to both approved MLS feeds. This is a property-search cohort, not a surveyed shoreline, county total, waterfront certification or Census boundary.
- As-of day: November 13, 2026. Source snapshot collected November 13, 2026 at 2:10 PM Central. A saved snapshot is not a claim of continuous live refresh.
- Property scope: Homes: residential, manufactured & condos. Home pricing groups residential, manufactured and condo sale properties only. Land, commercial, multifamily and farm/ranch views remain separate; rental asking prices are excluded.
- Pending status: Pending / Under Contract includes contingent and conditional properties. If a cross-listed property is Active in one feed and Pending in the other, it appears once under Pending.
- Prices: Current summaries use asking prices. Closed/sold summaries use actual source sold prices and the reporting-date hierarchy below. A median asking price does not establish an individual property's value or the price at which it will sell.
- Completeness: Complete totals require the full qualified source cohorts and verified handling of overlapping MLS records. Partial observations and their known-value counts are labeled. Missing information stays unavailable; a verified complete empty cohort may have a zero count.
- Comparisons: Prior-period and year-earlier changes require complete comparable cohorts and a valid nonzero baseline. Sold-volume, absorption and closing-history charts are not inferred from current listings.
- Matched sold records: Records for the same canonical property and source-reported sold day count once across the two MLS feeds when unit and property-family checks agree. Repeated listings within one feed are consolidated when sold price, size and supporting structural fields agree. For a condo, an explicitly matching unit, full street, sold price, bedrooms, baths and year can establish the repeated listing while a conflicting area stays unavailable for area-based statistics. Type-specific counts consider only records eligible for that property type; an unresolved non-home counterpart does not create a second home. When matched records disagree on sold price, no price is selected or averaged; that occurrence is excluded from price statistics and a complete sales-volume total until the price is resolved.
- Historical scope: Closed/Sold figures describe the complete qualified retained public records currently syndicated through the two approved MLS feeds when all coverage checks pass. They do not include private sales or establish an undocumented MLS archive-retention guarantee.
- Sale-period dates: Records use their recorded closing or sold date first. If that is unavailable, the closed/sold status-change date is used; if neither is available, the actual property last-edit date is used. All qualifying records remain in one reported series. A last-edit date allocates the record to a reporting period and is not proof of a settlement on that date. Listing creation dates and a general feed refresh are not used.
- Marketing time: Only actual verified source marketing-time fields are used. Listing creation, modification and import dates do not become days on market or closing dates.
Current data limitations
- Some records are missing asking price.
- Some records are missing original price.
- Some records are missing days on market.
- Some records are missing sqft.
- Some records are missing acres.

SMITH LAKE MARKET REVIEW
A useful market review begins with the properties that actually compete with yours.
CONTEXT FOR YOUR DECISIONThe lake isn’t
The lake isn’t
one price point.
Waterfront homes, condos, and land have different buyers and different considerations. Your review should reflect your property type, price range, location, and shoreline characteristics.

Relevant closed sales provide context for value. We’ll consider the dates, property differences, and available transaction details.
What buyers
can choose today.
Compare the available alternatives, their asking prices, and how your property stands out.

Read the market and reporting period together
Compare active inventory, pending and under-contract properties, closed sales, pricing, time on market and the number of observations behind each result. Homes, vacant land and other property types describe different markets.
Current listing categories are Active, Pending / Under Contract and Closed / Sold. Contingent and other current non-active contract statuses join Pending / Under Contract. Proven duplicate current properties are counted once; Pending / Under Contract takes precedence over Active.
Closed-sale dates use an available sold or closing date, then a supported sold/closed status-change date. For a closed or sold property without those dates, the property’s last-edit date may be used in the same sold totals. A feed refresh timestamp is not a property last-edit date.
Data must match the Smith Lake area for this report. Countywide numbers and another real estate company’s statistics are not substituted for missing lake data.
The source, the scope and the math
Use the approved Walker MLS and Greater Alabama MLS feeds, with verified geography, source fields and reporting coverage. Other MLSs, private sales and unauthorized or omitted records are not silently included. Identify the property types represented in each table.
The reporting period, retained-history coverage and source checked time belong with the figures. Unavailable means the required value or coverage has not been established; an observed zero is different. A source snapshot is not a real-time inventory quote.
- The reporting date follows Central Time. The source checked time identifies when a snapshot was retrieved; it is different from a listing’s closing date or property last-edit date. Invalid or future reporting dates do not qualify for a closed-sale window.
- Use Active, Pending / Under Contract and Closed / Sold as the three business categories. Contingent, conditional and other non-Active current-contract statuses join Pending / Under Contract. A proven duplicate current property is counted once, with Pending / Under Contract taking precedence over Active. New MLS entry counts do not establish an original listing date or official days on market.
- A twelve-month sales-volume total sums known, positive reported sold prices for the property types and geographic cohort identified with that total. A period from the day after the prior year’s anniversary through the reporting date includes both endpoints. Missing prices must be identified; incomplete history or an unusable total is unavailable. A volume headline independent of filters must say so explicitly.
- Current inventory uses asking prices; closed-sale statistics use sold prices. A selected minimum/maximum price filter can include both limits, while a fixed price band includes its lower limit and excludes its upper limit. The report must label which convention applies. Unknown prices do not pass a price filter.
- Averages and medians use only usable reported values. Known n is the number of usable observations behind a figure. Missing days on market and original asking prices are not estimated from other dates or prices. Small samples can change sharply and deserve caution.
- Home and condominium prices per square foot use reported living area. Land prices per acre use reported acreage. These are separate comparisons, and a missing or zero area is excluded. A land price per acre is not a home price per square foot.
- A price-reduction comparison uses original and current asking prices only when both are reported. Original price refers to that MLS listing, not the property’s first-ever asking price. These comparisons do not count reduction events or establish when a price changed. Sold-to-last-ask percentages require both the reported sold price and last asking price. An exact-match licensed source record may support a documented missing value; this page does not claim an unverified export integration.
- The 30-, 90- and 365-day periods include both endpoints. A comparison uses the immediately preceding equal-length window or a corresponding year-earlier window, identified separately. Incomplete history or a zero comparison baseline leaves percentage change unavailable. The current month is month to date (MTD), not a completed-month comparison.
- Months of inventory divides current active inventory by average monthly closed sales for the stated period. The source’s three-completed-calendar-month convention is active inventory divided by (closings in those three months ÷ 3). A rolling 90-day convention instead uses (closings in those 90 days ÷ 3) and must be labeled with that period; these periods are not interchangeable. Complete required history and a positive closing pace are needed. The result describes the observed supply and sales mix, not a prediction of future prices.
Closed/Sold date priority follows the owner-approved method: an actual sold/closing date, then a supported Sold/Closed status-change date, then the closed/sold property’s last-edit date if those are unavailable. Last-edit fallbacks remain in one combined closed series; they are not independently verified settlement dates. Feed refresh/import times do not substitute for property last edits.
