A real, striking year-over-year price jump

Redfin cited a $620,000 median sale price as of March 2026 -- up 40.3% year-over-year, a genuinely large swing disclosed here rather than smoothed into an average. This kind of jump is real evidence of a smaller, less liquid market where a handful of higher-value sales can move the median significantly.

A genuine internal Zillow discrepancy, disclosed rather than resolved

Two separate Zillow-hosted pages for Gardnerville cited different figures: one an average home value of $615,621 (up 2.2% YoY), a second a lower typical home value of $555,534 (DOWN 4.6% YoY) -- a real, unreconciled internal discrepancy worth knowing before relying on any single Zillow figure.

The most expensive market in this dataset's five-market batch

Regardless of which specific figure is used, Gardnerville runs meaningfully above Fernley, Dayton, Sun Valley, and Spanish Springs (which itself runs second-highest in this pass) -- a real, consistent pattern across every source reviewed.
