What you’re hearing about the housing market on a national scale doesn’t tell the true story about what’s happening in the Omaha Metro real estate market.
🏡 Median list price: $394,900, up 0.2% from last year
📉 Active inventory: down 9.5% from last year, which means fewer homes are actively listed for sale than at this time last year
⏱️ Median days on market: 38 days
For sellers, lower inventory is good news, but today’s buyers are savvier than ever and more selective. Homes that are priced appropriately, updated, well maintained and marketed well are still selling. Gone are the days of “sticking a sign in the yard” with zero preparation or strategy and hoping your house sells for top dollar.
For buyers, because homes are taking a little longer to sell, there may be a little more room for negotiation, but strategy is always situational.
This market has opportunities for both buyers and sellers, but the right strategy and negotiation combined with experience, matters now more than ever.
If you’re thinking about making a move in Omaha whether it’s next month or next year, let’s talk it through. No hype. No pressure. Just real strategy so you can make the best decision for your family.
