Smithtown Real Estate Market, August 2026

Smithtown's median sale price rose to $994,500 in August 2026, up from $848,000 in July and $852,000 in August 2025, the highest of the past year.

August 31, 2026, updated · Stephanie Calinoff, Licensed Associate Real Estate Broker

Forty houses closed, also the highest of the past year, against 33 in July and 35 last August. Median price per square foot fell to $424 from $443 in July, though it sat above the $416 of a year earlier, so the higher median came from larger houses changing hands rather than a uniform rise in price.

The spread shows where the weight moved. Eighteen sales closed at $1,000,000 and over, against 3 in August 2025, while the range between $700,000 and $799,999 thinned to 3 sales from 9. The bands below $700,000 held at 7 sales, compared with 5 a year earlier.

Twenty-nine of the 40 sales closed at or above asking, down from 30 of 33 in July and 31 of 35 last August. The median sale came in at 104.39 percent of list, close to July's 105.11 percent and last August's 104.54 percent, and houses took a median of 16 days on market against 15 in July and 13 a year earlier. There were 33 new listings.

Median sale price in Smithtown rose to $994,500 in August 2026 from $848,000 in July, while median price per square foot fell to $424 from $443.

These are town wide figures across 40 sales, and they cannot tell you what any particular house, in any particular condition or location, would sell for.
