Bucks County, Pennsylvania

Bucks County remains one of the strongest seller's markets in the Philadelphia region. The median home sold for about $546,665 in July 2026, up roughly 6% year over year, on 663 closed sales. Broker data from Bright MLS shows homes going under contract in about a week, though Redfin's three-month average runs closer to three weeks.

Inventory is still historically tight, with fewer than about 1,000 homes available countywide in mid-2026, though active listings were up roughly 13% compared with a year earlier. The Bucks County Association of Realtors says buyers gained more room to breathe in July, so while sellers hold the edge, the market is slowly drifting toward balance. Demand stays strongest for river towns like New Hope and Yardley and family communities such as Newtown and Doylestown, while Levittown and Warminster remain the more affordable options.

With SEPTA regional rail service, I-95, and the Pennsylvania Turnpike, commuting to Philadelphia is convenient. New York City is also accessible within 90 minutes, making Bucks County popular with professionals who work in both metros.
