Brighton MI Housing Market Update – February 2026
The Brighton MI housing market continued to show strong momentum in February 2026, with limited inventory and steady buyer demand keeping conditions favorable for sellers.
With just 0.9 months of housing supply, Brighton remains firmly in a seller-leaning market. A balanced market typically has around 4–6 months of inventory, so today’s conditions indicate that buyers are competing for a limited number of homes.
Inventory Remains Tight in Brighton
February saw 30 new single-family listings, representing a 20% increase from January. While that increase gives buyers slightly more options, the overall number of homes available remains low.
There were 37 active listings in Brighton during the month, with a median list price of $569,900. This reflects a 15.7% month-over-month increase, showing strong pricing confidence among sellers.
Low supply continues to drive competition in the Brighton MI housing market, keeping homes moving quickly once they are listed.

Home Prices Stay Strong
The median sold price in Brighton reached $400,000, increasing 1.5% from the previous month.
Another key indicator of market strength is the sold-to-list price ratio, which averaged 100.8% in February. That means many homes sold at or above asking price, highlighting continued buyer competition.
