Average Sale Price

The average sale price for November 2025 was $331,000, marking a 35.02% decrease from the $509,300 recorded in November 2024. This drop is significant and may be influenced by a smaller sample of lower-priced properties sold this month, rather than a broader market decline.

Still, the YTD average sale price sits at $439,000, up from $406,000 in 2024—a +8.11% increase over last year, reflecting strong pricing performance over the full year

🏷️ Ask-to-Sell Ratio Drops Slightly

The average ask-to-sell ratio in November 2025 was 92.9%, down 1.88% from 94.7% in November 2024. This indicates that on average, homes sold for about 7.1% below their asking price, pointing to more negotiation flexibility in the slower fall market.

On a YTD basis, the ratio is 96.6%, compared to 97.1% in 2024—a 0.50% decline. This slight adjustment suggests that while sellers remain confident overall, they are also responding to buyer expectations and market conditions.

Average Days on Market

🗓️ Days on Market Jump

A significant change in November 2025 was the increase in days on market (DOM). Properties took an average of 205 days to sell, which is a 162.82% increase from the 78-day average in November 2024.

Year-to-date, the DOM has risen to 92 days, up 2.22% compared to 90 days in 2024. While this is a modest YTD increase, the sharp spike in November suggests some homes may be sitting unsold longer—likely influenced by pricing strategy or condition of the property.
