Tulsa Real Estate Market Update: Spring 2026 Is Picking Up

The year may have started a little slower, but the Tulsa real estate market is picking up.

According to the latest February 2026 Tulsa MLS report, closed sales are up, pending sales are up, and home prices have risen compared to this time last year. That is a strong sign that the local market is gaining momentum as we move into spring.

One of the biggest takeaways is that the average sales price in Tulsa increased from about $303,000 in February 2025 to about $323,000 in February 2026. That is a noticeable jump and something both buyers and sellers should be watching closely.

At the same time, new listings are slightly down year over year, though more inventory is expected as the spring market continues. March and April are often busy months as families prepare for summer moves.

For sellers, preparation matters more than ever. With days on market still important, the goal is to launch your home strong on day one with the right pricing, prep, and marketing strategy.

For buyers, starting early is just as important. Even with more homes hitting the market, the best homes in the best locations that are priced right are still moving quickly.

If you are thinking about buying or selling a home in Tulsa, now is the time to start the conversation and build your plan for the spring market.
