Smaller Oakland County markets are shown as Zillow's Home Value Index rather than a recorded median sale price, because too few sales close there each month to publish one. Follow any city for its own figures and selling costs.

Oakland County questions

Where does an Oakland County home sale get recorded?

With the Oakland County Register of Deeds, which records the deed and any lien releases once the sale closes. The title company handles that filing for you, along with the Michigan property transfer affidavit and the transfer valuation affidavit — the document stating the price the $3,010 transfer tax on a typical Oakland County sale is calculated from. You do not file anything yourself.

Which Oakland County cities do you buy houses in?

We buy across the county, with dedicated local pages for Birmingham, Bloomfield Hills, Lake Orion, Troy, Rochester Hills, Farmington Hills and 10 more. Sales anywhere in the county are recorded through Pontiac, and smaller townships and unincorporated areas are fine too — if the property is in Oakland County, buyers will look at it.

How long does it take to sell a house in Oakland County?

Listed homes across Oakland County take a median of 9 days to go under contract as of June 2026, against a median sale price of $350,000. Add roughly a month for a mortgage-financed closing after that. Cash closings avoid the financing step and typically land in about two weeks.

Is Oakland County an expensive place to sell?

By price, Oakland County ranks 4 of the 27 Michigan counties we cover. It is not a single market though: Birmingham runs around $751,833 while Pontiac sits near $135,233, so advice that fits one end of Oakland County rarely fits the other.

Have Oakland County home values gone up?

The typical Oakland County home has moved from about $306,887 five years ago to $373,377 now, a gain of 21.7%, with a rise of 2.4% in the past twelve months. County-wide figures hide a lot of local variation, so check your own city's page for a closer read.

Do sellers in Oakland County have the upper hand right now?

45% of Oakland County sales close above asking, with about 4,411 homes on the market and roughly 2,048 new listings last month. That is a seller's market, so a well-presented house is worth listing if you can wait for it.

Is a cash offer worth it in Oakland County?

It depends on the house more than the county. On a typical $350,000 Oakland County sale, a 6% commission is about $21,000 and the transfer tax another $3,010, both of which a cash sale removes or the buyer covers. A cash offer is still below full retail, so the question is whether that discount is smaller than the repairs, fees and months of carrying costs a listing would cost you.
