Beaumont New  MLS® Listings

🏘️ Listings Rise by Nearly 40%

A total of 36 new listings hit the Beaumont market in December—a 38.46% increase over the same time last year. This is particularly notable considering many homeowners traditionally wait until spring to list.

The jump in listings suggests:

• Sellers are trying to get ahead of 2026 market competition
• Inventory is less seasonal than in past years
• Investor-owned properties and vacant builder inventory are being actively marketed

Average Asking Price

💰 Asking Prices Surge to $603,000

The average asking price hit $603,000, a 10.07% increase from December 2024. This is the highest monthly list price recorded in 2025, reflecting strong seller expectations and confidence in the long-term value of Beaumont homes.

However, rising list prices do not always align with final sale prices—especially in slower winter markets.

Beaumont Home Sales

📈 Sales Jump 24% Year-over-Year

Beaumont saw 31 homes sold in December 2025, up from 25 last December—a 24% increase. This is an unusual trend, as December is typically one of the slowest months for real estate.

Key contributors to this unexpected rise include:

• Buyers locking in purchases before expected 2026 rate adjustments
• Builders offering year-end incentives on quick possessions
• Sellers pricing more competitively, generating renewed activity

Average Sale Price

📉 Sale Prices Fall: Down 8.66% from Last Year

The average sale price for December was $523,000, down from an estimated $572,600 the year prior. This 8.66% year-over-year decline suggests that buyers are pushing back on inflated pricing or choosing more modest, entry-level homes.

📉 Ask-to-Sell Ratio Falls to 98.0%

Beaumont’s ask-to-sell ratio dipped to 98.0%, a modest 0.54% drop from last year. This means homes sold for about 2% below their list price, on average.

While not drastic, this reflects a market where negotiation is now standard, and buyers are no longer willing to meet aggressive seller expectations without justification.

Average Days on Market

⏳ Homes Take 99 Days to Sell

On average, homes took 99 days to sell in December, marking a 1.02% increase year-over-year. This metric remained relatively stable compared to prior months but is significantly higher than the spring average.

Contributing factors include:

• Seasonal slowdown and delayed closings over the holidays
• Increased negotiation cycles
• Market fatigue from earlier in the year

Sellers listing in late fall should expect 3+ months to sale unless their property is in top condition and competitively priced.

📅 2025 Year-End Summary (YTD Totals)

🔍 What does this tell us about the year overall?

• Sales volume slowed but remained stable in a shifting economic climate
• Buyers gained more control, leading to price softening
• Sellers remained optimistic, keeping asking prices higher
• Inventory grew substantially, shifting the market toward balance

🔮 Forecast for Q1 2026

As we move into the new year, here’s what to expect:

• 🧊 January and February will likely remain slow, especially for higher-priced homes
• 📈 Renewed interest may build in March, with buyers motivated by rate predictions or job transfers
