April brought more patience from sellers and mixed price movement across Minnesota and the Twin Cities.
📊 Home Prices:
• Statewide median held flat at $360K
• Metro median dipped 2.0% to $392K

💵 Seller Flexibility:
• Sellers received 98.4% of list price statewide (down from 98.8% last year)
• Metro sellers received 99.3% (up from 98.7%)

⏱️ Days on Market:
• 64 days statewide
• 57 days metro
Both up 10–15% year over year as buyers show less urgency.

“Move-up buyers and downsizers with equity continue to drive this market,” said Aarica L. Coleman of Minneapolis Area Realtors®. “Slowing price growth may open up some possibility for first-time buyers, but affordability hinges so much on rates. Homeownership continues to be most accessible to people who already have some capital.”
