The Omaha housing market continues to show steady, encouraging momentum as we move through spring. Compared to March of last year, new listings are up 5.8%, giving buyers more options while helping the market stay balanced. Inventory has also grown 3.1%, bringing total supply to 2.0 months—still a relatively tight market that continues to favor sellers.
Buyer activity remains consistent, with pending sales holding steady (+0.3%) and 995 homes successfully closing in March. Homes are moving efficiently as well, averaging just 34 days on market, a strong indicator of sustained demand.
Pricing remains a bright spot. The median closed price climbed to $320,000, with the average price reaching $365,148, reflecting continued confidence in home values. Sellers are also seeing excellent returns, receiving an average of 99.4% of their list price—showing that well-priced homes are still commanding strong offers.
While the Housing Affordability Index dipped slightly (-0.8%), overall conditions remain favorable, especially with more inventory creating opportunities for buyers to find the right fit.
Bottom line: Omaha’s market is stable, active, and moving in a healthy direction, with solid pricing, steady demand, and improving inventory creating opportunities on both sides of the transaction.
