Tahoe Sierra Single-Family and Condo Sales: Summer 2026 Counts
Market data analysis published by Trinkie Watson · Chase International. Published .
How many single-family and condo sales did Tahoe Sierra MLS report?
Across June, July, and August 2026, the monthly reports listed 299 single-family sales and 65 condominium sales. The “other” sold category was zero in all three reports.
| Month | Single-family sold | Condo sold | Combined sold | Condo share of combined |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| June | 82 | 23 | 105 | 21.9% |
| July | 109 | 15 | 124 | 12.1% |
| August | 108 | 27 | 135 | 20.0% |
| Three-month sum | 299 | 65 | 364 | 17.9% |
What the category counts show
They show the number of reported monthly closings by the source's property categories across the Tahoe Sierra MLS areas. Condo closings were lower in July than June or August, while single-family closings rose from June and remained nearly level in July and August.
What the counts do not show
Counts alone do not show median price, price change, demand, selling probability, inventory balance, or which category was “stronger.” The active population, property mix, location mix, and price distribution differ.
Why this evidence cannot repair the supplied export's missing property type
The client closing file has no row-level property-type field. The public monthly category totals cannot be joined to individual supplied records. They provide regional category context, not a way to relabel the 246 supplied closings.
Use category-matched evidence
A condo buyer or seller should review the specific association, building or development, dues, reserves, assessments, insurance, rental rules, management, and matched unit sales. A detached-home analysis needs its own matched land, condition, access, and setting evidence.
Turn the broad number into a property question
For a serious purchase or sale, define the exact address or search area, property form, price range, condition, setting, and intended timing. Then compare current competing listings and closely matched closed properties instead of applying a town-wide number mechanically.

Frequently asked questions
Were 17.9% of all Tahoe homes condos?
No. That is the condo share of the combined single-family and condo closings reported in these three monthly Tahoe Sierra MLS tables, not a housing-stock share.
Does the lower July condo count mean condo demand fell?
No. Closed counts alone cannot isolate demand, and one month can reflect timing and inventory mix.

- Zillow Truckee housing market, data through August 31, 2026 unless the metric is dated July 31. Zillow's $1,032,042 figure is the Zillow Home Value Index, a modeled typical home value, not a closed-sale median.
- Redfin Truckee housing market, three months ending August 2026 and August 2026 metric tables. Redfin says its figures are calculated from MLS and/or public-record data.
- Realtor.com Truckee market, historical charts through August 2026. Its $1.1 million figure is a median listing price, not a closed-sale price.
- Tahoe Sierra MLS statistical information, including the June, July, and August 2026 monthly PDFs. Those reports span seven Tahoe Sierra market areas and separate single-family, condominium, and other categories.
The supplied client MLS closing sample contains 246 unique records marked SOLD with closing dates from June 1 through August 31, 2026. It is not independently verified as complete-market coverage and has no row-level property-type field. The separate supplied active workbook contains 261 records marked ACTIVE, but its export date is unconfirmed. Broad Truckee portal figures do not describe Lake Tahoe lakefront property, Nevada-side markets, a particular neighborhood, or a particular property.
