The market is still moving, but buyers continue to have the upper hand.

Across Buncombe County, 95 homes came on the market last week and 87 sold. Asheville actually had slightly more sales than new listings, while Black Mountain was evenly split with six new listings and six sales. So buyers are definitely still out there.

But they also have plenty of homes to choose from. Buncombe County currently has 2,165 homes for sale, a 6.3-month supply of inventory and an average of 67 days on the market.

The number that really stands out this week is 193 price reductions across the county. That is nearly 9% of all homes currently for sale. It tells us that many sellers are having to adjust their expectations to attract today’s more selective buyers.

For buyers, this can mean opportunities to negotiate - especially on homes that have been sitting on the market or recently reduced. Just remember that attractive, well-priced homes can still sell quickly.

For sellers, pricing matters more than ever. Buyers are active, but they have enough choices that they are unlikely to overpay. Homes that are priced correctly and show well have the best chance of getting their attention.

This week’s takeaway: Buyers are still buying, but sellers may need to adjust their price to get noticed.

When you've seen mortgage rates in the 3% range, today's rates can be hard to swallow. And if waiting another six months or a year could get you a mortgage at 5%, why wouldn't you wait? There's just one problem. Nobody knows when - or if - we're going to see 5% mortgage rates again anytime soon. And waiting for that magic number could mean overlooking some advantages buyers have in today's market. To understand why waiting may not be your best option, check out our latest blog post at https://www.jasonlandrealty.com/blog/posts/2026/08/25/still-waiting-for-5-mortgage-rates-you-may-want-to-rethink-that-strategy/

Asheville Region Housing Market Update - Has Inventory Finally Hit Its Summer Peak?

After months of watching the number of homes for sale climb, we may be seeing the first signs that inventory is leveling off.

Across Buncombe County, 2,190 homes are currently for sale, down slightly from 2,197 last week. Asheville inventory also dipped from 1,168 to 1,153 homes, while Black Mountain dropped from 179 to 175.

Black Mountain had another interesting number this week: 9 homes sold while only 7 new listings came on the market. Countywide, the picture was different, with 93 new listings compared with 69 sales.

But here's the number we're watching most closely: Months Supply of Inventory remains at 6.5 months. So even though the total number of homes for sale has started to edge lower, we haven't yet seen enough buyer demand to significantly tighten the market. Buyers still have plenty of choices and negotiating opportunities.

Meanwhile, the median sales price remains steady at $425,000, suggesting that the market adjustment continues to show up more through price reductions and negotiating room than through a significant decline in overall selling prices. There were 165 price reductions across Buncombe County this week.

So, has inventory peaked for the summer? It's too early to say, but after months of increases, the recent leveling off is something we'll be watching closely as we head toward fall.

Remember when a home would hit the market on Friday, receive multiple offers by Sunday and sell for more than the asking price? That market isn't completely gone… but it certainly isn't the market most sellers are experiencing today. According to Zillow's most recent sale-to-list data, 74.2% of homes sold in Buncombe County closed for less than their final asking price. Only 12.1% sold above asking. So, what's going on?

Asheville Region Housing Market Update - Buyer-Friendly Conditions Continue

The Asheville-area housing market remains firmly tilted toward buyers, with Months Supply of Inventory increasing again to 6.5 months. That is up from 6.4 last week and continues the steady rise we have seen over the past several months.

Across Buncombe County, 2,197 homes are currently for sale, including 1,159 in Asheville and 179 in Black Mountain. New listings once again outpaced sales, with 111 homes coming to market compared with 76 sold. That continued gap between supply and demand is helping keep inventory elevated.

Price reductions remain common as well, with 176 across Buncombe County this week, including 93 in Asheville. Buyers have choices, and sellers are increasingly competing for their attention.

At the same time, this is not a market where homes simply are not selling. 76 homes closed countywide this week, and the median sales price remains steady at $425,000. Average days on market also held at 68 days.

Looking back over the past few months, the bigger story is clear: inventory and Months Supply of Inventory have continued to rise while median pricing has remained relatively stable. That suggests the market is adjusting primarily through more buyer choice, longer negotiations, and seller price adjustments, rather than through a broad decline in home values.

For sellers, realistic pricing from the beginning remains especially important. For buyers, today's inventory levels provide more time, more choices, and greater negotiating opportunities than we have seen in several years.

Asheville Region Housing Market Update - Buyers Remain in the Driver's Seat

This week's numbers continue to tell a consistent story: buyers have plenty of choices, and well-priced homes are still finding buyers.

Across Buncombe County, there are now 2,195 homes for sale, including 1,168 in Asheville and 182 in Black Mountain. Months Supply of Inventory remains at 6.4, keeping the market in buyer-favored territory. Buyers have more negotiating power than they've had in several years, while sellers need to be strategic about pricing.

This week, 75 homes sold countywide, compared to 88 new listings. Although inventory remains elevated, the gap between new listings and sales continues to narrow, suggesting demand remains steady despite higher mortgage rates.

One interesting trend is in Black Mountain, where 6 homes sold while only 3 new listings came on the market. While it's only one week's data, it's another sign that desirable homes in Black Mountain continue to attract buyers.

Price reductions remain common, with 180 across Buncombe County, including 98 in Asheville. That reinforces what we've been seeing for months: buyers are willing to pay market value, but they're less willing to overpay.

The median sales price held steady at $425,000, while average days on market increased slightly to 68 days. That tells us the market remains healthy, but buyers are taking a little more time to make decisions than they did during the fast-paced markets of a few years ago.
