December wrapped up 2025 with steady activity overall. Single-family homes continued to be the anchor of the market, ending both the month and the year ahead of 2024 levels. Average sale prices for the month came in higher than last year, suggesting that despite shifting conditions, buyers and sellers are still finding good alignment in this segment. Townhomes also held their own, showing small increases in both monthly and year-to-date sales. The condo market, however, told a different story. December saw fewer condo sales compared to last year, paired with higher inventory levels. This creates a more competitive environment for sellers and gives buyers additional choice. These kinds of variations between property types aren’t unusual, especially in a region as diverse as ours, but they do remind us that market conditions can vary widely depending on the home style and price range.
As we step into 2026, there’s genuine excitement about the opportunities ahead. Balanced conditions in key segments, evolving economic signals, and a community that continues to grow all set the stage for an interesting year in local real estate.
